Run For The Bucket Race Description

5K Run/walk to support CVS research at the Medical College of Wisconsin as well as CVSA's important initiatives such as the publication of the adult guidelines and increasing our doctor referral lists.  

 

From a past participant: "CVSA helped me by showing me that I wasn't alone in this fight. It was several years after I was diagnosed when I found the CVSA website and interacted with other sufferers and parents of sufferers on a question board.  Finding out I was not the only one and that there are people out there that understand what I'm going through was very comforting. Candy O Hicks

CVSA helped me by showing me that I wasn't alone in this fight. It was several years after I was diagnosed when I found the CVSA website and interacted with other sufferers and parents of sufferers on a question board, I believe that was on the site. Finding out I was not the only one and that there are people out there that understand what I'm going through was very comforting.

Experience of a lifetime

It was my first time running this race. Always wanted to run this particular race. Debbie and her group of volunteers did a superb job organizing the event. Though it was raining, the spirits of the runners, supporters, and volunteers made sunshine come out of the building. DEFINITELY a race one should do to walk along one who is effected by this illness or they themselves are effected.

Go, GO, GO!!!

It is nice to find a place that you can meet others that are not only aware of, but experience CVS and know what you go through!!
