“We are excited to see old friends and meet new faces at our 5th Annual Stadium Run. Let us keep running towards our goal of curing Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy so that no family will have to endure the pain of losing their child to this dreadful disease.”, JOH Founder, James Raffone.
All proceeds donated will support JOH’s fight against Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Duchenne is a muscle wasting disease for which there is no cure. Those affected are typically wheelchair-bound by their teen years, with life expectancy in their 20s.
