Special event inspired by loss of local mom from a brain aneurysm to help educate the community on the warning signs and increased risk factors associated with brain aneurysms. Participate and help honor survivors and remember those who lost their lives while also spreading awareness.
Online, July 29, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Please join us for the Griffin Brain Aneurysm Movement 5K Run/Walk at Joe W. Brown Park located at 5601 Read Boulevard in New Orleans, LA on Saturday, September 19, 2015.
Registration for this inspiring event begins at 7:00am on the 19th, with the run/walk kicking off right at 8:30am.
Often times, people ignore the preceding signs of a rupturing brain aneurysm. With awareness events, such as this, I hope to help educate my community on the warning signs and increased risk factors associated with brain aneurysms.
All who register by September 5th receive a discounted fee of $25 as well as a complimentary t-shirt (standard adult size t-shirts available). The fee to participate increases by $5 after September 5, 2015.
