The 1st Annual Strides for Strength 5K and Fun Run will be held at McDonogh School with all proceeds benefiting Giving Strength Inc and our mission to fund research grants and build awareness for the rare congenital muscular dystrophy, SELENON Related Myopathy. This rare disease mainly impacts neck and core muscle weakness, causing rigid spine, scoliosis and reduced respiratory function. Every dollar raised is so impactful for those navigating SELENON and will go directly to the top researchers in the world. Let’s get those strides in and build strength for those suffering!

Course:

The 5K race will start promptly at 9:30 AM.

Fun Run will begin shortly after all 5K participants have moved through the starting line.

The course will run through the beautiful McDonogh School campus with a 1/2 kilometer section on packed gravel by the stadium.

Note: Pets are not permitted at the race. Strollers and wheeled devices are permitted, but we ask that you line up at the back of the race group for safety. If running, we strongly recommend strollers for uneven terrain through the 1/2 kilometer on packed gravel. If walking, any stroller will go through with ease
