ALS Crusaders 5k Race Information

<p><span style="color:rgb( 22 , 145 , 121 );font-size:18pt"><strong>Come join us for the ALS Crusaders 5k!!!</strong></span></p> <p>As part of our Foroige Leadership Program service project, we are organizing a 5k charity run on Sunday, March 8th, at Archbishop Stepinac High School in White Plains, NY. This 5k will benefit the ALS Therapy Development Institute (ALS TDI). Through both personal experience and outward observation, we recognize the severe issues presented by ALS to patients and their families. In response, we are raising money for the world’s largest drug discovery lab focused completely on curing ALS.  In order to do this, they need help to get there. We need your help in supporting this worthy cause!  There will need to be not just one, but many treatments to end ALS.  At the ALS TDI, they are not just advancing one treatment option – they are forging a path to deliver the multiple treatments that will end ALS for every person affected. </p> <p>We, the ALS Crusaders, hope that you can join us on March 8th!  Come for the run and celebrate helping to make a difference in the search for a cure for ALS. 100% of the proceeds of this race will be going to the ALS Therapy Development Institute and all donations will go directly toward making an impact in the fight against ALS. </p> <p>- Cian Doyle, Luke Harvey, Daniel O&#39;Keefe, Michael O&#39;Keefe - The ALS Crusaders</p> <p> </p> <p><span style="color:rgb( 22 , 145 , 121 )"><strong>The details:</strong></span></p> <p>The race will be held rain or shine on Sunday, March 8th, at Archbishop Stepinac High School in White Plains, NY.  Race start is at 9AM and there will be a one hour time limit.  Bib pickup will be held at the school on the day of the event starting at 8AM.  The specifc location will be made known closer to the race date.  It is suggested to arrive early to ensure parking on site and to make for a smoother bib pickup process.  There are bathrooms available within the school building and runners will be able to wait inside the school before the race.  Each runner/walker will be guaranteed a race t-shirt if they are registered by February 21st. </p> <p style="line-height:1">There will be awards offered in the following categories:</p> <ul><li>top 3 overall male</li><li>top 3 overall female</li><li>top 3 Stepinac students</li><li>top 3 Stepinac faculty/staff</li></ul> <p>There will also be a virtual race option for those who cannot make it to White Plains on race day.</p>
