This fun, family-friendly event invites participants of all ages and abilities to choose between a 5K walk/run or a 1-mile walk/run, making it easy for everyone to get involved. It’s the perfect opportunity to bring your family and friends together for a great cause. Enjoy a lively morning filled with games, face painting, food trucks, and more, all while showing your support for the lupus community. Lace up your sneakers, rally your crew, and join us for a day of fun, hope, and impact!
Every step taken and every dollar raised will directly support MMRI’s lupus research initiatives, helping to advance discoveries and improve lives.
