Organiser's description

Join us for the NOT WITHOUT A FIGHT 5K & 15K ~ RUN, WALK OR CYCLE.

DATE: JULY 14, 2023
WE ARE NOW ALL VIRTUAL!

_ABOUT THE NOT WITHOUT A FIGHT 5K & 15K_
This run/walk/cycle is set up to benefit Andy Wassom, who was diagnosed with ALS on March 22, 2023, and would become a day that Andy and his family will never forget.

ALS, also known as Lou Gehrigs disease, is an unforgiving disease that causes motor neurons inside the spinal cord to die. Following this, the muscles degenerate, and you become a prisoner inside your body, progressively losing the ability to move, speak, swallow, and eventually breathe. The cause of this debilitating disease is still unknown and without a cure.

ALS is a huge financial burden. Taking a shower, driving, or taking a stroll in the park... things we often take for granted become impossible without proper equipment, wheelchairs, and mobility vans. The inability to live life to its fullest should not be a financial burden. Your support, prayers, and donations are deeply appreciated.

100% of the proceeds are going to Andy and his fight against ALS.

Register by midnight on July 3, 2023 to be guaranteed a commemorative tee.
