Thousands of Utahns participated Saturday in the 19th annual Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure to raise funds for the organization's mission to end breast cancer.

Komen Utah is one of the group's 125 affiliates. Through events like the Race for the Cure, Komen Utah has invested $5.6 million in Utah breast cancer programs since its inception.

Up to 75 percent of net proceeds generated stays in Utah. The remaining 25 percent funds national breast cancer research.
