Miles for Migraine will host its 6th annual 1.6-mile Walk, 5K Run and Relax Connecticut event on Sunday, April 27th at Bushnell Park in Hartford. 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!
Funds raised will benefit Miles for Migraine free programs & services as well as the Yale Headache Center and Hartford Healthcare Headache Center to support local migraine research and fellowship training programs.
