2 Miles
2/28 is Rare Disease Day! HARD core runners can rock out the 28 miles, but maybe 2 miles is more your style! Pick a day or break it up over the 8 days...it's up to you! This will be a great choice for our Fighting HARD kiddos and for others who may want to participate, but aren't really into running. Talk a few walks with the kids, hop on the treadmill, however you would like to get your 2 miles in to Run HARD for Rare Kids is fine by us!

Relaxing for Rare
Let's face it...some of us just are NOT runners! Some of us simply are NOT able to run, and that's okay too! Want to help us raise some awareness for Rare Diseases from your sofa? No problem...Get creative and share your posts when you are Relaxing HARD for Rare Kids! Maybe your kiddo is participating in Run HARD for Rare Kids, but you finally get a chance to Relax! Whatever the reason, we can all raise some awareness for rare diseases!

Organiser's description
Rare Disease Day is February 29th, 2024, which is the RAREST day of the year. So we will be having our Virtual Run for the 8 days leading up to our Rare Day! You can participate in any event that you would like during those 8 days. Are you a HARD core runner? Rock out 28 miles. How about 8 miles in 8 days? Or 2 miles? Or perhaps you just want to support our kids and Relax for Rare Kids instead! Some of our kids in the foundation may not be able to run or even walk, so we thought this would be a great way to show them that others are running or walking FOR THEM! Let's all spread some love, raise some awareness, and Run HARD for Rare Kids!
