RUN, WALK and WHEELATHON - upcoming event. " Burn some rubber at Infineon Raceway!"
Event to be held on Thursday, August 20 in Sonoma, CA

The Sam Schmidt Paralysis Foundation and Shoot For a Cure Moto Sport are excited to announce that the next in our wildly popular RUN, WALK and WHEELATHON series of events is coming to Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, California on Thursday, August 20, 2009.  The event takes place on a specially designed course at Infineon Raceway… a once in a lifetime opportunity for race fans to actually run / walk / wheel the track!  All of the money raised will fund paralysis research helping the almost 6 million people in the United States who have some form of paralysis.

After the overwhelming response to our last Run, WALK, and WHEELATHON, held on July 9 in Toronto, Canada, we are looking forward to another great and successful event in Sonoma.

We are grateful for the support of Infineon Raceway, Sonoma California for donating the use of the site and other logistical considerations.  We expect to welcome many participants, including Indycar drivers and personalities, and a responsive crowd to cheer us all on.

The awards ceremony and after party will be held immediately following the race.   There will be opportunities for celebrity autographs and photos, and lots of other surprises.
