More than 3,000 Reginans laced up their shoes and opened up their wallets Sunday for the annual CIBC Run for the Cure.

Participants did either a one- or five-kilometre walk or run, starting at the Conexus Arts Centre.

More than $170,000 was raised in support of breast cancer research at this year's event.

Last year, Canadians raised more than $33 million during the nation-wide event.

About 60 communities hosted their own CIBC Run for the Cure in 2011.
