Advanced Surgical Physicians will be hosting its second annual Obstacle Course Race on Saturday, Sept. 6 at Okeeheelee Park.
The race will benefit Sojourners With Healing Hearts, a West Palm Beach-based nonprofit dedicated to raising awareness and providing support and resources to African American women and other women of color during their breast cancer journeys.
Led by Dr. Andrew Shapiro, Dr. Kyle Eldredge and the Advanced Surgical Physicians team, this event will be a challenging yet fun obstacle course designed for participants of all fitness levels. Participants will run, walk, climb and crawl through 10 unique stations, including a balance beam, double sandbag carry, log carry, wire crawl and wall climb, all while supporting a vital cause. Entertainment will be provided by a local DJ to keep the participants energized, and vendors will be on hand selling food, crafts and goods.
“At Advanced Surgical Physicians, we understand that treating breast cancer extends far beyond medical procedures,” Shapiro said. “Support is crucial for women navigating their breast cancer journey. We are proud to support Sojourners With Healing Hearts, an organization that embodies this philosophy and does so much to provide comprehensive support to women in our community.”
