From the Organizer
The Global Nerve Foundation (GNF) is a charitable, nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of millions of people worldwide affected by peripheral nerve problems.
To celebrate our fourth anniversary on September 13, 2026, we’re hosting our first-ever virtual 5K and 10K—and you can participate from anywhere in the world. This event has two goals:
- Raise global awareness of peripheral nerve problems, and
- Support GNF’s mission through optional fundraising (participation is free).
Participants who choose to fundraise will be eligible to receive free race swag and GNF goodies as a thank-you for their support.
Run or walk on your own route, at your own pace, wherever you are. Participants can submit their results during the first two weeks of September.
We hope you’ll join us to raise awareness of peripheral nerve problems and help advance the work of the Global Nerve Foundation. Learn more about the Global Nerve Foundation at https://globalnervefoundation.org/run-for-nerve/
