About
Join us this spring at Gwynedd Mercy University as we lace up our sneakers for a cause! Dive headfirst into excitement with our first ever student-driven 5K Run & 1-Mile Walk, where your every step fuels the fight against rare diseases. Partnered with Uplifting Athletes, we're not just running – we're making waves in research funding, family support, and leadership development. With all proceeds championing these incredible causes, your participation means the world to those 30 million Americans who stand tall in the face of rarity.
Save the dates—registration kicks off on March 16th, wrapping up on April 25th, with the main event sprinting into action on April 26th. Don't miss the chance to be part of something monumental. Not a runner? No worries! Your helping hands can do wonders as a volunteer. Come, transform movement into meaning with us, and let's run towards a future brimming with hope and solidarity!
