Virtual Parkinson's Half Marathon, 5k, and 1 Mile Walk 2021

Short review

It’s race time! 

The Wisconsin Chapter of the American Parkinson’s Disease Association (APDA) is excited to launch the registration for the 2021 virtual Parkinson’s half marathon, 5K, and 1 mile walk to be held April 17-25, 2021!

Although our preference would be to see you all cross the finish line in Cottage Grove, Wisconsin, the COVID-19 pandemic has forced our hand into a virtual race as we remain focused on keeping our participants, spectators, sponsors and volunteers safe. Same race, same amazing Parkinson’s community, just new scenery for your walk or run!

The Nasset family and friends have poured their time and talents into this event over the past nine years, and it has been the #1 fundraiser for the Wisconsin Chapter of APDA, with donations totaling over $300,000. An incredible achievement that’s possible because of YOU!

The proceeds of this race support educational programs and exercise classes for people with Parkinson’s disease and help provide financial support to Wisconsin families struggling to afford all of the additional costs of life with Parkinson’s. Simply put, your generosity helps to provide education and support to everyone in Wisconsin affected by Parkinson’s disease, helping them live life to the fullest. 

Please visit the race website for more information and to register. As a valued member of this community, your extra involvement is greatly appreciated! Post on social media using #parkinsonshalfmarathon, create a team and get your friends and family involved, or set a fundraising goal and encourage your network to give. Every effort helps support those affected by Parkinson’s disease!

Join us for the 2021 Parkinson’s half marathon, 5K and 1 mile walk!
