Miles for Migraine will host its 13th annual 2-mile Walk, 5K Run and Relax Pennsylvania event on Sunday September 28th at The Navy Yard in Philadelphia. 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.
All walk and run finishers receive a finisher medal. The 5K run is professionally timed. Dress up in your best purple flair for a chance at a fun prize! We'll also have our special Map the Migraine Treasure Hunt to learn more about migraine.
Funds raised will benefit Miles for Migraine free programs & services as well as the Jefferson Headache Center, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and U Penn Headache Center to support local migraine research and fellowship training programs.
