Viking 5K Run/Walk is Going Virtual - June 14 to 30!

At Conquer MG, the health of the MG community is our first priority. In fact, the good health of those who have myasthenia gravis is our reason for existing. Conquer MG is cancelling the Viking 5K Run/Walk that was to be held June 14. We need to wait out the coronavirus, and not hold public events until it’s deemed safe for YOU, whose needs we champion.

Although we can’t gather in person for this year’s Run/Walk, we still want to bring together the community to support individuals who have MG.  And frankly, we need your help to raise funds for our vital work of education, support, advocacy and research funding. We can't do this without you!

So watch for our Virtual Viking 5K, coming soon! In the meantime, we hope you and your loved ones stay safe.

We only processed a couple test registrations, and appreciate the donations. This registration page will be cancelled, and Conquer MG will start fresh for the Virtual Run/Walk.
