TIMES SQUARE - More than 20,000 people packed Times Square on Saturday for the annual Revlon Run/Walk for Women.
The 5k run, which ended in Central Park, is designed to raise awareness and funds for breast and ovarian cancer research.
A number of celebs also came out for the cause, including Jessica Biel and Jimmy Fallon. R&B singer Keyshia Cole performed.
"I've been participating for over 10 years now and it means a lot to me, especially this year because I was diagnosed with hodgkins lymphoma last year and I'm about two weeks into remission now so I'm all clear and I'm so happy to be here," participant Dawn Deleo told NY 1.
"My grandma's actually a survivor of breast cancer so I called her this week and told her, 'You know I'm running this race for you,'" said another participant, Drew Wichmann, according to the station.
The run/walks, which are held in New York and LA, have raised more than $60 million over the past 14 years.
