Miles for Migraine will host its 7th annual 2-mile Walk (or Intentional Movement of your choice), 5K Run and Relax Chicago Event on Saturday August 20th at Montrose Beach at Lincoln Park. This event is a fundraiser for Migraine & Headache Awareness, Treatment & Research. Dress up in your best purple flair for a chance at a fun prize!
All funds raised will benefit The Seymour Diamond Fellowship in Headache Medicine.
Thank you to the Diamond Headache Clinic for their generous match on the first $15,000 in donations for this year's event!
Registration fees
FREE Walk/Run/Relax for kids 6 & under
Bring your kids to join you for the walk, run or relax portion of the event! Registration is free for those 6 and under. They will receive a bib and finisher medal, but event shirts will be a separate charge for these participants (if desired).
I Am Fundraising Only
Select this option if you do not want to take part in the walk, intentional movement, run or relax events, but still want to contribute to the event. Perhaps you just want to do some advocacy and fundraising. With this free option you will not receive a swag bag (event t-shirt, finisher medal and other goodies). If you raise at least $25 by the time the event closes, we will send you a t-shirt.
