A one-mile, all downhill road race or walk.


October 24, 2009
10:00 am

The measured, one-mile race is located around the Brown University campus and takes full advantage of College Hill. The course traverses a continuous, gradual downhill slope to allow runners to attain record times for a distance of one mile.

Walkers will start behind the runners.

Organized by volunteer efforts of Brown University Premed AMSA students to benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.


 

 

A 2009 Thank-You...

to everyone who participated in the second annual Dash for Diabetes. Rain did not hamper our event and with your help we raised around $2500 for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. Check out results and pictures from race day! We hope you enjoyed yourselves, and we look forward to seeing you in 2010.

Sincerely,
The Dash for Diabetes Team
