We’re in awe of the dedication we’ve seen from our supporters. So far, registrants have raised thousands of dollars and dozens of people have volunteered to help make Strides for Stroke the best it’s ever been! Sponsors have also joined the cause by making generous donations and offering amazing race-day gifts for the runners including delicious pretzels from the Philly Soft Pretzel Factory, free one-month memberships to Sweat Fitness, and more.The big day is coming quickly and we couldn’t be more excited!
But listen—if you haven’t signed up, it’s not too late. There are still 10 days left in National Stroke Awareness Month for you to join this remarkable event and spread awareness. Click here to sign up for the race. The first 500 registrations will be entered to win an autographed John Mayberry Jr. jersey.
