Last year over 250 people ran or walked in the race on a beautiful sunny fall day. We all had a wonderful time. If anyone is interested I will be very glad to mail a brochure providing full details of the event. This year, we will again have at least one Scottish Bagpiper, a Scottish MC and we are very hopeful as of this writing that Scottish dancers will perform for us prior to the race. Everyone who registers receives a race t-shirt and a bag of goodies.
Free refreshments follow the race.
Every dollar of the money raised goes directly to ALS of Michigan for research, patient support, information dissemination and public awareness. Unfortunately the course which is around a lake and through woods is not wheelchair accessible but the event takes place adjacent to a paved parking lot. We hope to see you there. Hi Walt, It seems to me that the answer to your question is raising money, by hook or by crook, to fund research. The ALSA and NIH funding cycles are very slow.
