Donations:
We're two weeks out from our race for Landau-Kleffner Syndrome and I'm really excited to report that we've raised just over $2000 in honor of Braden Peiffer and LKS! All the proceeds go to research specifically for LKS. We had one donation in the amount of $1,000 from an extremely generous donor. As the donations come in I'm realizing what an amazing journey this has been, I've met and spoken to some incredible people and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this entire experience extremely special.
Race Day:
Many of you have asked about the route and other race day details. I've attached a map of the race route, we'll be starting on the Prairie Path Trail (http://www.ipp.org/pdf/IPP-
We're planning on starting at 6am and because I run slow we're estimating a finish time between 1-2pm. I'm welcoming anyone to cheer us on or run a part of the race with us. The more the merrier! And because this an unofficial race we're just going to have fun, not feel any pressure and enjoy the journey. Family, friends, and supporters are joining us for the last mile of the race - they'll be helping us with hardest part of it! We'll also be joined on the last mile by Courtney Anderson who has fully recovered from this disease - a true inspiration!
On May 11th, 2013 Darcy Lawler (Braden's Aunt), Amanda Collins, Dusty Hardman (running from her home state of FL), Terri Preast (running from her home state of TN), are running 31.1 miles in honor of Braden Peiffer and LKS and we're going to run our hearts out!
Donations are still being taken in honor of Braden Peiffer:
