This charitable event is
being held to raise awareness and funds for ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis)
also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. In the winter of 2008 Christopher Stone was
diagnosed with ALS at the young age thirty-four. As a result, the Christopher
Stone Fund was established to help support the Stone family as they went
through this challenging time. Sadly, Chris lost his fight in the summer of
2009, less than a year after being diagnosed. However, the Christopher Stone
Fund continues to actively raise funds for local ASL chapters as well as other
charitable causes.
This
horrific disease affects over 30,000 people just in the USA. Caring for
individuals with ALS is often expensive and emotionally straining. We hope this
race will help provide ALS victims, families, and caretakers with the most
fulfilling quality of life during this most trying time.
