People were running around downtown Calgary in underwear for a good cause Thursday afternoon.
The Alberta Cancer Foundation held a race to launch its 2010 Underwear Affair on Stephen Avenue.
The foundation's Lee Elliot tells 660News the wacky event is designed to promote a good cause, advancing progress in cancer research and care.
The Underwear Affair will have participants run or walk five or 10 kilometres on June 5th in creative costumes to raise funds and call attention to cancer below the waist.
