St. Judes is incredible with what they are doing for kids and their families. My daughter is currently a patient there and is doing great. Almost all of St Judes budget comes from donations


Hope your daughter is doing well!! St. Jude's is a blessing for sure.

This was my first year running the St Jude Marathon.
I was there last year but the ice storm put a end to that.

This was my second half marathon. My wife (sorry no pics) also ran the half and was her first. We plan to make this a yearly event. We went with a great group of people that had earlier in the year put on a 5k race at AveryIsland Jungle Gardens to raise money for the kids of St Jude.

If you can run, walk or crawl you need to attend this great event every year 1st Saturday in December. You won't regret it. Do it at least once. Add it to your bucket list.

Agreed. Amazing event. This was my wife's 4th time running here. She has done the half three times and the full for the first time this year. I always enjoy tagging along. It's a great weekend trip, and St Jude and the city of Memphis do a great job hosting the event.
