Whether you’re new to the Breast Cancer 3-Day or an old pro, your journey begins here. A Get Started Meeting will provide you with the information and inspiration you are looking for. Register at an in-person meeting and you’ll receive your walker handbook on the spot.

If you’re already registered, this meeting is for you, too. We’ll talk about training and fundraising, and get you the information you need to prepare for an amazing experience. Bring your friends and family so they can learn more about the Breast Cancer 3-Day, too!

View our online calendar to find an upcoming Get Started Meeting near you.

If you can't join us at an in-person meeting, you can attend one via conference call.

We're looking forward to a season of great Breast Cancer 3-Day with YOU!

It’s time to take the first step toward your 60-mile journey. As soon as you register, you’ll have access to everything you need for successful training and fundraising, as well as the support of the other walkers on our message boards. Learn about Get Started meetings, training walks and shoe fittings, build a team, share fundraising tips...it all starts with your registration. http://www.the3day.org/site/PageServer?pagename=register

If you don't think this is your year to participate as a walker, consider crewing or volunteering. You can get in touch with a Breast Cancer 3-Day coach at coaches@the3day.org or 1-800-996-3DAY to get more information.
