Jamaicans flood the streets of St Andrew on Sunday to support the annual staging of the Insurance Company of the West Indies and Jamaica Reach to Recovery Pink Run which started and ended at Emancipation Park in New Kingston. It was another pink affair, held in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, with walkers and runners adhering to the all things pink, tall socks and tutus dress code. Something Extra was there to bring you the highlights.
