Miles for Migraine will host its 5th annual 2-mile Walk, 5K Run and Relax Winston-Salem Event on Saturday September 9th, at Jamison Park. 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. Registration is free!!
All walk and run finishers receive a finisher medal. 5K run is professionally timed and offers cash prizes. Dress up in your best purple flair for a chance at a fun prize!
All funds raised will benefit the Comprehensive Headache Program at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist to support local migraine research and fellowship training programs and Miles for Migraine programs & services.
