Description
For June, the HIKE2 team will be hosting the HIKE2 Virtual Half Marathon for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital! Anyone is welcomed and encouraged to join as we race for a cause.
All of the money raised will be donated to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in honor of National Cancer Survivors Day on June 4th.
St. Jude is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases (particularly leukemia). The mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is to advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment. Consistent with the vision of our founder Danny Thomas, no child is denied treatment based on race, religion or a family's ability to pay. Daily operating costs average $1.7M but patients are not charged for their care.
Are you interested in participating but worried about the commitment? Don't worry, you'll have the month of June to record any walking, hiking, or running distance you have made, so there is no rush! But we will have different awards for those who are going above and beyond!
Medals can be purchased for an additional fee.
