It's a celebration for the 4,600 Limited Brands' participants in Columbus, Ohio, who have won the 2009 Susan G. Komen team challenge award for the most participants. Limited Brands has received this award consecutively since 2001.

In support of raising awareness & research dollars in the fight against breast cancer, Limited Brands' associates from Columbus joined the more than 45,000 race participants as they ran or walked in this year's Susan G. Komen "Race for the Cure." For the past 13 years, Limited Brands has been a corporate sponsor of Komen Columbus.

"We are honored to receive our eighth team challenge award and I am so proud of our associates for exceeding our participant record," said Janelle Simmons, director of community relations for Limited Brands. "Our associates understand the importance of raising awareness of breast cancer as many of us have been personally touched in some way whether it's been personally, a family member, a friend or colleague who has battled this disease. This is a wonderful way for us to honor those individuals."

Later this year, Limited Brands' associates will also participate in the Komen New York Race, Komen Central New Mexico Race, as well as, the American Cancer Society "Making Strides Walk" in Kettering, Ohio.
