Thank you for taking the time to be part of the Hills & Valleys Race and its mission.

At the heart of this event is a simple but powerful truth: life is filled with both mountaintop moments and deep valleys. There are seasons when the path feels light and joyfuland others when the road is steep, uncertain, and heavy to walk. This race was created as a reminder that no one has to journey through those valleys alone.

Each year, our hope is that this event becomes more than a racethat it becomes a moment where our community gathers in compassion, generosity, and faith to lift up someone walking through a difficult season.

BENEFITING JEREMY BOUWMAN AND FAMILY:

This year's proceeds will be going directly to Jeremy Bouwman and his family. Here is their story:

In January 2025, Jeremy was diagnosed with a rare neurological condition, Autoimmune Cerebellar Ataxia. After months of hospital stays, doctors have found no clear cause or cure, and he now relies on a wheelchair while facing ongoing challenges with balance, vision and speech. Before this, Jeremy loved hunting, hiking, running and summitting Mt Baker each year with family by his side. This journey has brought many hills and valleys for this sweet family as they pursue treatments not covered by insurance.

By signing up for the Hills & Valleys race, you're helping Jeremy keep moving forward and pursing the help and treatment he needs to keep moving forward. Join us in lifting Jeremy and his family up through prayer, community, and support.
