2023 PeDRA Dash for Discovery - Hybrid Fun Run/Walk

Join us for the 2023 PeDRA Dash for Discovery! This event will give runners and walkers of all ages and abilities the chance to support research and collaboration in the field of pediatric dermatology with their choice of a 5K or 1-mile fun run/walk. So, lace up your shoes and put on some miles to help accelerate research to improve the lives of children with dermatologic conditions and diseases. You'll have the chance to join teams and set fundraising goals to make the Dash, even more, fun and meaningful.  

The 2023 PeDRA Dash for Discovery will be a hybrid event, giving runners and walkers the ability to dash anywhere, anytime between Friday, November 3, and Sunday, November 12, 2023. For anyone attending the 2023 PeDRA Annual Conference, you’ll have the chance to meet up with other runners and walkers at the conference to dash on the streets of Atlanta. Make the 2023 Dash what you want it to be, while knowing you’re running alongside a proud community pursuing the shared goal of ending the burden of childhood skin disease through research.

♦ A special D4D Flow into Yoga Session has been added to our in-person events on Saturday, November 11, in Atlanta! ♦ Now you can either race at your own pace or flow into yoga! Participate in this one-time yoga session and help raise funds for childhood skin disease research.

The 2023 PeDRA Dash for Discovery is the perfect way to support PeDRA's Mission to create, inspire, and sustain research to prevent, treat, and cure childhood skin disease. 

Dashers also have the opportunity (totally optional!) to use the 2023 PeDRA Dash for Discovery to raise funds in support of pediatric dermatology research and earn some great swag at the same time:

• Raise $100 and earn a PeDRA Athletic Belt
• Raise $250 and earn a PeDRA Dash for Discovery Athletic Baseball Hat, along with the athletic belt.
• Raise $500 and earn a PeDRA Dash for Discovery Athletic Hoodie, along with the other two rewards listed above.
