Spinal Champions
The national “We’ve Got Your Back” run/walk concept is driven by patients to improve spinal healthcare through research, education and advocacy. The funds raised through each of these events directly support the Spinal Research Foundation, a national 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization founded in 2002. This event is inspired by the touching success stories told by our “Spinal Champions.”
What is a Spinal Champion?
If you have suffered from back or neck pain and have overcome it through either nonsurgical or surgical treatments, you are one of our Spinal Champions. We are proud to host the only run/walk event designed to celebrate your accomplishments as we continue to research new techniques to improve spinal healthcare for future generations.
Honoring our Spinal Champions on race day
Spinal Champions are important to us! Returning in 2012, we will have a VIP tent area for our Spinal Champions. Be sure to visit the tent before or after the run/walk to enjoy special refreshments and visit with your fellow Spinal Champions. We will showcase several success stories in the tent area. Do you have a success story you’d like to share? See information below on how to submit your story to be displayed on race day. On the day of the event we want our Spinal Champions to stand out in the crowd to recognize your achievements. When you register please select the option to receive your official yellow Spinal Champion t-shirt to wear with pride!
