5k to Beat ALS

Discount Code: EASTNASTYRUNS

When: April 13th at 8am

Where: 1 Cadillac Drive, Brentwood, TN

Attention all runners and fitness enthusiasts! Mark your calendars for Saturday, April 13, 2024, for a Certified 5k Course in Maryland Farms - it's fast, flat, and perfect for reaching your next personal record! We will start and finish at Andrews Cadillac, 1 Cadillac Drive, Brentwood, TN.  100% of the proceeds go directly to ALS Charities!

Your participation will benefit the division of Neuromuscular Disorders at VUMC which actively engages in clinical research addressing Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Faculty members regularly participate in multisite clinical trials. As a certified Center of Excellence in ALS, Vanderbilt can offer patients holistic care, which includes novel, potentially life-changing therapeutics emerging from research activities. Your donation will support this team of clinicians and researchers whose mission is to advance clinical research and treatments for people with ALS.

We understand that a 5k might not be for everyone, so we're also organizing a 1k Fun Run at 9:30 am to benefit Hope Loves Company, a non-profit that provides emotional and educational support to children and young adults who have or had a loved one battling ALS. Whether you're a seasoned runner or just want to show your support, this shorter distance is a fantastic way to get involved and contribute to the cause.

Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to make a difference while pushing your limits. We can't wait to see you there, ready to cross the finish line and celebrate together!
