Since its inception in 2007, the Fiesta 5K has raised more than $3.7 million for ALS research. Participants can run/walk as part of a team or on their own. The goal of the race is simple - we want to make people more aware of ALS and raise funds to support our efforts toward a cure.
If you’ve participated in a virtual race at any time you know the drill, but if not, it’s easy!
