Congratulations to all Mother\'s Day Classic participants, volunteers and sponsors for raising a record $2.1 million this year.

Thanks to everyone\'s fundraising efforts the Women in Super Mother\'s Day Classic presented the biggest cheque in the event\'s history to the National Breast Cancer Foundation for their vital research into prevention and cure for breast cancer.

The Mother\'s Day Classic 2010 was an all round record year! With the largest attendance of 100,000 people walking and running in events across the nation helping raise $2.1 million for breast cancer research. Thank you to everyone who took part, fundraised, volunteered, organised a regional event and donated.

Rachel Carter, breast cancer researcher and a volunteer at this year\'s Mother\'s Day Classic gave a speech at a special ceremony to hand over the cheque for $2.1 million to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. She spoke of her appreciation for everyone\'s support and how much researchers across the country value the funds raised each year by everyone involved in the Mother\'s Day Classic.

\"These funds allow us to continue to look into the best ways to prevent and treat breast cancer, so we can protect the health and well being of those affected by breast cancer for generations to come.\"
