Napa MPS Race for a Cure

🏃‍♂️ Napa Race for a Cure Details

The National MPS Society will host a timed 5K run and 1 mile walk, beginning at 10:30 AM on Sunday, April 26. The 1 mile walk will begin at 10:40 AM. Packet pickup and day of registration will open at 8:30 AM. A picnic for attendees and volunteers will be held after the race!

This event is open to individuals of all ages and abilities. Once you register, either as an individual or as part of a team, you are set. We would love to see the posts of pictures participants on their 5K route. This is completely optional – but since our goal is to bring awareness to MPS and ML, we want to do just that. And by using #MPSAwareness on your social media posts, we will be able to keep up with the fun.

Event Location: 2295 Streblow Drive, Napa, CA
