    The woman who started Stride for a Cure is Dr. Kim Leverett, an 11-year breast cancer survivor and personal trainer.

    “We’re here today just celebrating life,” Dr. Leverett said. “Loving on each other, meeting new friends, and making this. Hopefully next year we’ll do it again.”

    Net proceeds from Stride for a Cure will go to the nonprofit Arkansas Cancer Coalition .
