Organiser's Description
Join us on the football field May 17, 2025 at the UC Davis Health Stadium in Davis, California! Choose your distance and get ready to start and finish your race in the Stadium at the first-ever YOLO Run, presented by the NEC Society and UC Davis Children's Hospital.
NEC is an intestinal disease that can affect medically fragile infants during their first weeks and months of life. UC Davis Children's Hospital provides lifesaving care for babies at risk of NEC, and the NEC Society is the world's leading nonprofit advancing NEC research, education, and advocacy. Yolo County locals, Jennifer and Noah Canvasser, launched the NEC Society after tragically losing their son, Micah, to the disease. By teaming up with UC Davis Children's Hospital, the Canvasser family and NEC Society are building a world without NEC. Join us for the YOLO Run to support this work!
