Join us for the Walk On 5K — Run, Walk, Roll, a timed 5K in Exeter, NH, bringing our community together to support families affected by Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD). Proceeds will benefit the Bailey girls, in partnership with the Dion Foundation for Children with Rare Disease.
In the summer of 2025, sisters Kennedy (9) and Berkeley (6) Bailey were diagnosed with LGMD type 2C, a rare and progressive neuromuscular disease. From the moment they received this diagnosis, their family has faced it with strength and determination—committed to pursuing treatment options and supporting the advancement of research.
Through their partnership with the Dion Foundation, this event helps raise awareness and critical funding—not only for Kennedy and Berkeley, but for all families navigating LGMD.
This day is about more than fundraising. It’s about showing up—with energy, encouragement, and community—so these girls feel supported every step of the way.
We invite you to be part of it: register, donate, volunteer, and follow their journey on social media (@walkonlgmd). Your support truly means everything.
And to our sponsors—thank you for helping make this event possible!
Please note:
Strollers are welcome, in addition to handcycles and wheelchairs! No bicycles, and no dogs~ sorry!
This is a charity 5K and, in the event of cancellation for any reason, registration fees are non-refundable. Thank you for your understanding.
