MOM'S DAY RUN 5/10k
Come join us for the 1st Annual Mom's Day Run!
This is an un-official run, there are no timing chips, no finish line hooplah, no goody bags or medals.
Just friends and family...together remembering my mom.
We are raising money and awareness for VHL and hopefully next year we can have all of the above. But for now, my family and friends will honor my mother (who passed away on August 2, 2010 from complications of VHL) by joining me for a walk/run along the beach on Mother's Day.
Bring your mom, invite your friends!
UPDATE: Shana just had surgery to remove a brain tumor and a cyst caused by VHL, on Monday, April 25, 2011. She is determined to be at this event to honor her grandmother. Please join us...and if you can't, please donate to this cause, that is so dear to our hearts.
