After 20 incredible years of our The Pittsburgh Chapter of The Buoniconti Fund's annual golf outing hosted by James Hoy and family, we’re turning the page — and hitting the trail. This year marks the debut of our community race series, built with heart, hustle, and a whole lot of first‑year grit.

Our inaugural lineup features a Half Marathon *(16+), 10K*(16+), 5K*(12+), and a fast‑and‑fun Kids’ Dash* (3-11), inviting runners, walkers, and wheel pushers of all ages to celebrate tradition in a brand‑new way. Whether you’re chasing a PR, jogging/walking/rolling with friends, or cheering on the next generation, this race is about momentum — honoring where we’ve been and running toward what’s next.

The Buoniconti Fund to Cure Paralysis

Committed to finding a cure for paralysis resulting from spinal cord injury and to seeing millions worldwide walk again, the Buoniconti family established The Buoniconti Fund to Cure Paralysis in 1992. The Buoniconti Fund is a non-profit organization whose mission is to raise funds and awareness to help The Miami Project achieve its primary focus; to repair and restore function to the injured and diseased nervous system, thereby improving the quality of life to patients throughout the world.

In 1985, Barth A. Green, M.D., world-renowned neurosurgeon, and Nick Buoniconti, NFL Hall of Fame linebacker, founded The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis after Nick’s son, Marc, sustained a spinal cord injury during a college football game. The Miami Project, a Center of Excellence at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, is a leading global research center. The Miami Project is conducting cutting-edge discovery, translational and clinical investigations in traumatic spinal cord and brain injury, peripheral nerve injury and neurological diseases and disorders including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, Multiple Sclerosis and stroke.
