Walk or Run as individuals or in team relays. You decide your distance and pace. Register and make pledges in person at the onsite information desk.

Starting at 4am, Jacquie will celebrate her 60th birthday by dedicating her 13-14hr 100K Power Walk to raise funds for Ian's ongoing medical costs and build public awareness about SJS. Jacquie is an SJS survivor, living with significant permanent loss of the use of both hands. She copes with constant pain and neural sensitivity caused by complex regional pain syndrome and functional digit joint/tendon issues as a secondary complication to SJS.

Our ability to maintain Ian's vision, while raising awareness about SJS, truly depends on your support. Donations are gratefully accepted in the following ways:
