Description
This event is not a race but a lifeline of runners committed to running the research check in the amount of $30,000 from the Rampy MS Research Foundation to the recipients at the MS research department at UAMS in Little Rock, AR. This money will go to the doctors on the front line of finding break through therapies and trials that one day will lead to a cure of MS. The run will start in Bentonville and continue south on the east side of Fayetteville through Elkins to Russellville along the Interstate 40 corridor to west side of Conway to Maumelle and into Little Rock. The attached map is the proposed route of travel. Run segments of ten miles up to 21 segments will be plotted with runners pre-assigned to run the entire segment or join in all or a portion of that segment. Segment 22 has been added for people that can't join in the run but want to do their own thing to support the cause, walk, swim, bike, hike, etc.
