RUN & WALK EVENTS

Runs & Walks are a good way to get a large crowd together for a good cause. Building teams helps promote competitive fundraising, helping you reach your fundraising goal quickly!
WHAT IT IS:
Warm ups begin now! A 5K Run or Walk is a great way to get people moving in the right direction towards brain aneurysm awareness! We will build an event site with an easy step-by-step registration site, allowing people to register individually, build a team for competitive fundraising, or donate to your campaign. We assist you with all the details as you plan your event and race to the finish line!
WE RELY ON YOU TO:
• Decide what type of event you would like to host
• Select a date: allow 6 months to plan an event to ensure the greatest success
• Choose a location & design a course
• Contact your local governing board to approve the event and to acquire permit
