Organiser's description

Join us for the Third Annual 5K to Raise Awareness for Cerebral Palsy, a day dedicated to strength, unity, and community support for individuals living with CP. Together, we walk, run, and roll for our warriors.

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a group of disorders that affect a persons ability to move and maintain balance and posture. It is the most common motor disability in childhood, with recent data indicating a prevalence of approximately 1 in 345 children in the United States. Globally, more than 17 million people are living with CP. It is a lifelong, non-progressive neurological condition, and no two cases are the same.

This yearly event is proudly dedicated to Julianna Rose, a fearless and resilient little girl who suffered two brain hemorrhages in utero at 19 and 25 weeks due to a rare blood condition known as Neonatal Alloimmune Thrombocytopenia (NAIT). Despite the odds, Julianna continues to inspire those around her with her courage and determination.
