Join the Epilepsy Foundation of Idaho for the 2021 Sharon's Ride.Run.Walk. - a  movement that brings our community together to educate, spread awareness and make a difference for the people we love who live with epilepsy.  These nationwide events are dedicated to the memory of Sharon Rosenfeld, a nurse and teacher who cared deeply about epilepsy and advocated helmet safety.

BENEFITS OF GOING VIRTUAL

  • Flexibility to do whatever you want with your route.
  • Still the same support from your EFI community and those close to you

WHY YOUR PARTICIPATION MATTERS

BECAUSE…

·         1 IN 10 will have a SEIZURE in their lifetime

·         1 IN 26 will be DIAGNOSED with EPILEPSY

·         30,000 IDAHOANS live with EPILEPSY

·         3.4 MIL individuals nationwide are AFFECTED by EPILEPSY

Epilepsy is more than seizures.  Every story matters in this fight.  Follow us on Facebook  and Instagram  to meet our Idaho community affected by epilepsy and read personal stories of WHY this matters.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

You'll set your own course and go the distance sometime between September 26th - October 2nd. We’ll supply a race shirt and swag. Celebrate at home, in your neighborhood, another state, online, or anywhere you would like.  Ride, run, walk or choose a different activity that best suits your family.  

The prizes this year will be for LARGEST team and MOST MONEY RAISED by a team. Connect with your friends, family, coworkers to build teams across the U.S. for a chance at winning these prizes. 

Take photos of your celebration and share them with us – use #EpilepsyID and #SharonsRide.  We encourage you to wear your t-shirt and have a personalized team sign in your photos!  There will be blocks of time during the week of the event for virtual registrants to pick up their t-shirts and prize(s).  

For those of you who are creative - We have a special challenge. Track your route on Apple or Samsung health to create cool designs! They can be as simple as a heart or super intricate like a brain. This activity is meant to be fun and will most likely fall outside of the 1 mile and 5K baselines. So if you are brave and ready to take on a fun experience with those around you. SIGN UP!
