Every ability counts

Walking, running, rolling, therapy sessions, medical treatments, caregiving and even a really hard day all count toward the miles. This race was built for the whole Alexander disease community, at every pace.

Every stop on the route stands for part of the Alexander disease journey: research, care, advocacy and the families at the center of it all.
