I think you need to stick with family on this issue.
I understand how much you want to go to the banquet, but at what cost? This seems to be VERY important to your mom and your grandma.
Because they have both suffered from this disease, they probably feel so lucky (as should you:), and they want to help other people and their families. You have to understand why it's so important for you to go.
Boyfriends/girlfriends will come and go out of your life forever (some will stay awhile), but your family is there forever. I think you should race.

This seems like it would be kind of important to your mom and grandma for you to join them in the race for a cure. You're contributing to saving lives and you're making you're mom and grandma happy. Plus, you would totally feel guilty if you chose a date over family. And you could just go on another date some other time. Trust me that it'll all work out better if you race for a cure.
