Parkinson's Won't Stop Me 5K Race Description

So many people in South Florida have been affected or know someone who has been affected by Parkinson's Disease.  The 2nd Annual Parkinson's Won't Stop Me 5K will help the Parkinson's Foundation raise money to find a cure and help those affected.  Paul Bersach, a former Miami-Dade Fire Fighter, was affected by this unfortunate disease and this 5K will honor his name and help ensure other families do not go through what his family endured.  Paul dedicated so much of his life to helping others, including 30 years of service to Miami-Dade Fire Rescue.  Paul is blessed with a beautiful family, starting with his wife Toby and their three children Stacey, Andy, and Cindy. The family is focused on continuing his legacy of giving.  Proceeds from the event will go to the Parkinson's Foundation in Paul's honor.  Your support is humbling and will all help those who are fighting against Parkinson's Disease, which be one step closer to a cure thanks to your support, in Paul's honor.
