Organiser's Description
In 2009 the run was renamed to honor Sam Lapidus, who lost his battle with Ewings Sarcoma, a form of childhood cancer, in November 2008 just nine days before his 15th birthday. Five dollars of every runners registration is donated in Sams memory to the Alabama Center for Childhood Cancer and Blood disorders at Childrens of Alabama.
To date, the LJCC has donated more than $100,000 to the organization.
Now hosting approximately 1,500 runners of all ages, the SLMR serves as a Thanksgiving Tradition for many Families and out-of-town visitors.
AWARDS
We will have awards for our friends who come best-dressed in costume.
