Dash for Dana Race Description

In December 2017, Dana was diagnosed with DIPG, a highly aggressive and difficult brain tumor found at the base of the brain. There is no cure for this disease. Dana was pregnant at the time, and her case made world news since she was the first ever on record. Less than a month after diagnosis, she gave birth to a beautiful and healthy daughter Aries. Dana has amazed everyone in the past 13 months as she has been through numerous treatments both here in the U.S. and in Mexico. It has been up and down at times, but she continues to battle this dreaded disease through her faith in God. With the help of family, friends, great doctors, people from all over the world, and countless prayers, she was able to celebrate Aries' 1st Birthday on January 4th. If there was anyone who could beat this, Dana is the one!  She is an example for all the children around the world and her strength is helping others to battle along with her. Please help Dana and Aries in their fight. This event is a 5K run/walk and all proceeds will go to help Dana and Aries, as well as making people aware of DIPG. This event will be a 5K Run/Walk and the only awards given will be trophies for the overall Male and Female runner. NO OFFICIAL TIMING WILL BE DONE. T-shirts will be given as part of registration up to April 1st.  After that date, they are not guaranteed.  There will also be Tricky Trays, Baked Goods, and hand made items for sale. Please come out to run, walk, eat some food, or just be with friends for a good cause. Thank you.
