Why We Run...
We will be participating in ALS Network's Running Bitcoin Challenge. We run to honor Hal Finney, a Bitcoin pioneer, runner, and inspiration to us all. We run to support those affected by ALS/MND and to spread awareness of the urgency of finding treatments and cures.
What is ALS?
Often referred to as Lou Gehrig's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive, fatal neurodegenerative disease that slowly robs the body of its ability to walk, speak, swallow, and breathe.
Why We Urgently Need Your Help
ALS occurs throughout the world with no racial, ethnic, age, or socioeconomic boundaries.
- The average life expectancy of an ALS patient is two to five years from the time of diagnosis.
- Every 90 minutes, someone in this country is diagnosed with ALS, and every 90 minutes, another person will lose their battle against this disease.
- There are no known cures and only modestly effective treatments.
- Caring for a loved one with ALS costs families an average of $250,000 USD each year.
Every dollar donated moves us closer to effective treatments and cures for ALS.
