Susan G. Komen 3-Day Walk Begins Friday from Stone Mountain Park

Walkers will end their 60-mile journey at Turner Field.

They will remember sisters, aunts, friends, mothers, co-workers, daughters, or even their own experiences - from diagnosis to treatment.

And as they remember, they will walk.

The participants in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day will begin their 60-mile journey from Stone Mountain Park again this year, starting Friday, Oct. 19. The walk goes on until Friday, Oct. 21. There will be a closing ceremony at Turner Field.

The walkers each raised $2,300 to be a part of the 3-Day, which includes stops in the evening where they have a special set up that includes a dining tent, showers and more.
