Miles for Migraine will host its 10th annual 2-mile Walk (or Intentional Movement of your choice), 5K Run and Relax Philadelphia Event on Saturday October 1st at Forbidden Drive in Wissahickon Park. This event is a fundraiser for Migraine & Headache Awareness, Treatment & Research. It's more than a walk/run - come connect with your local migraine & headache community, listen to our speakers & visit sponsors in the festival area. Dress up in your best purple flair for a chance at a fun prize!
All funds raised will benefit local migraine and headache research and fellowship training programs at:
- Jefferson Headache Center
- Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP)
Registration fees
FREE Walk/Run/Relax for kids 6 & under
Bring your kids to join you for the walk, run or relax portion of the event! Registration is free for those 6 and under. They will receive a bib and finisher medal, but event shirts will be a separate charge for these participants (if desired).
I Am Fundraising Only
Select this option if you do not want to take part in the walk, intentional movement, run or relax events, but still want to contribute to the event. Perhaps you just want to do some advocacy and fundraising. With this free option you will not receive a swag bag (event t-shirt, finisher medal and other goodies). If you raise at least $25 by the time the event closes, we will send you a t-shirt.
