This weekend the American Cancer Society's Northwest New Jersey region hosted the annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer 5K at the Mack-Cali Business Campus in Parsippany.

By all accounts it was a great day for folks dressed in pink and blue (in support of men with the disease): More than 11,000 walkers showed up to support the fight and raised $790,000 for breast cancer research and services.

Walk organizers say the money raised will go to local anti-breast cancer efforts.
