The 26.2 with Donna Finish Breast Cancer Marathon in Jacksonville, Fla., is this weekend and is the only marathon in the country where all race proceeds and donated funds go to breast cancer research and care for those with the disease. Mayo Clinic receives 70 percent of the funds and almost $1.9 million has been contributed to Mayo in the last five years.
