Join us for the 5th Annual Kares 5K on September 26th at Metamora Fields as we run for Jack, raise awareness for KDM5C, and support the families who live this journey every day. Together, we’re in it for the long run.
7:30 AM — Kids 1‑Mile Fun Run: Little legs leading the way for the long run.
8:00 AM — 5K: Walk, run, or bike — every stride counts for the long run.
Jack was diagnosed with KDM5C when he was 7, a rare genetic condition that has shaped our family’s journey in ways we never expected. If you know Jack, you know he’s funny, social, and absolutely lights up around people. He loves a good crowd, a good laugh, and he would be thrilled to see everyone come out to celebrate him and the entire KARES community. ♥ ♥ ♥
Our family is deeply involved with the KARES Foundation and proud to support their mission: to improve the lives of those affected by KDM5C genetic variants through advocacy, research, education, and support for individuals and families. Every step taken at this 5K helps move that mission forward — and Jack can’t wait to cheer you on! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
