The Gold Nugget Triathlon is pleased to announce that thanks
to the generous donations from participants, we
are able to donate $3,781 to the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition
(NOCC)!
258 participants donated a total of $3,265 through online
registration, and Gold Nugget Triathlon Inc. will be donating
$516 as our 'match' ($2 per separate donation received). Ovarian
cancer is the 5th leading cause of cancer-related deaths in
women aged 35-74.
Survival rates are good for cases detected early, but unfortunately,
due to the vagueness of the symptoms and the lack of early
detection tests, most cases are detected in later stages, when
survival rates are not as high (as low as 29% for cases caught
at stage III or higher!). Ovarian cancer symptoms can
be very hard to detect, which is why we encourage all women
to go to the NOCC website (www.ovarian.org)
to familiarize yourselves with the symptoms. Also, knowing
your family history and getting regular annual exams are
two important steps you can take in the prevention and early
detection of all forms of cancer.
We are very grateful to our generous participants
who joined us in supporting the work of the NOCC!
Entry Fee - $60 for adults, and $35 for girls age 10-17
There will be 75 Lane bids available for $125 each
Lane donations are a non-refundable tax-deductible donation
to the Gold Nugget Triathlon. See Entry tab
for more information.
Photographs of the race can be ordered from Action Sports International. If you would like to be notified when you pictures are ready, simply provide them with your name, email address, and bib number.
