Join us for the 2nd Annual
Miles For Migraine - Hartford, CT
Miles for Migraine will host its second annual 2-mile Walk (or Intentional Movement of your choice), 5K Run and Relax Hartford Event on Saturday May 1st at Bushnell Park. This fundraiser for Migraine & Headache Awareness, Treatment & Research will take place both as a live event (on 5/1/21) and virtual event (4/28-5/6).
All funds raised will benefit the Hartford Healthcare Headache Center and Yale Headache Center to support local migraine research and fellowship training programs.
Our in-person event will have COVID safety protocols in place, including a waved start with small batches of participants.
Virtual participants, we will mail out your swag bag for receipt by April 29th (if you sign up after April 25th, the bag will be mailed on May 3rd) that includes your participant shirt, an event bib and finisher medal. There may be a few other goodies included too! NOTE: For participants outside the US, there will be an additional $15 shipping fee to cover the extra cost.
Remember, our events are not just for walkers and runners. As a virtual event, you would commit to completing a walk, a run, or any type of intentional movement (bike, swim, skate, hike, etc) or your own relaxation activity at a time and place that works for you between April 28 - May 6th. You will upload your results and a selfie, via a link provided to you a few days in advance of the scheduled event.
Dress up in your best purple flair and post to social media for another chance at a fun prize!
Earn Miles for Migraine Swag based on your level of fundraising. See prizes and levels here.
All fundraising prizes will be sent out on May 3rd.
