Event Description

The Find Your Joy Race Series is a virtual race event to benefit The Siegel Rare Neuroimmune Association, an organization dedicated to providing education, research, resources, and support to patients/families diagnosed with rare neuroimmune disorders such as Acute Transverse Myelitis and Acute Flaccid Myelitis. The organization has been hit hard since COVID-19 with fewer opportunities to have their annual in person fundraising events and donors, they are in need of financial support to keep the organization going to keep providing much needed support and resources to these patients and their families. This race series has set a goal of raising a total of $5000 to help the SRNA keep running during COVID-19. The race will be virtual so you can run where ever you want, indoor on a treadmill, outdoor on road, or trail and walkers are welcome as well. We also have a wheelchair/adapted/modified division as well. 

There will be 3 distances to choose from to participate: 5K, 10K, or half marathon. You can chose to run 1,2, or all of the distances (i.e. you can register for the 5k and 10k, or the 10k and half marathon, or 5k and half marathon, or run all three: 5k, 10k, half marathon). Participants will have the entire month of November 2020 to complete their race and submit their results. Race swag will include bib, medal, t-shirt (tech fabric), boco trucker hat, and running buff. People will have the option to choose the amount of swag they want with three options:

Option 1: Full Joy Swag Bag with T-shirt, Bib, Medal, Hat, Buff
Option 2: A little bit of Joy Swag Bag: Bib, Medal, T-shirt 
Option 3: Just give me the dang medal swag bag: Bib, Medal
Option 4: No Swag, just register, run the miles and submit your times (This is the free option, but we ask that you consider making a donation to the SRNA to help us with reaching our fundraising goal)

Participants will also have the option to add an extra donation for the SRNA on to their registration with the option to tag on $1, $3, $5, $10, $15, $20, $25, $50 and $100 to their registration for the donation.

Modified/Special Accommodation Participation Option: There will be a special option for people with disabilities to participate in the event via modified means such as hand cycle, wheelchair, etc.. They will be able to use the same registration and will have the same swag options. For those wishing to particpate via modified means, they will just need to email us and notify us.

Along with raising funds for the SRNA, it is also our goal to lift spirits, spread joy, and promote health and wellness during an unprecedented time. We hope this race series helps you "Find your Joy"!
