Goal

Every year we run between Chicago and Milwaukee on Black Friday to remember our dear friend Alfredo Pedro Perro and raise money for charitable causes. For more information about the Turkey Trot event please visit the below Facebook page:

This year, on Friday, November 28th at 8:00am we are running from Milwaukee (Amtrak Milwaukee train station) to Chicago and have selected to support Band of Runners, an organization that promotes the community of trail running and the physical and psychological benefits of running in nature with veterans and their surviving family members. 


Please help us provide trail camp to veterans at no cost in 2026.


Learn more about Band of Runners from our Founder, Liza Howard:


Meet some of our amazing veterans and mentors who were able to attend trail camp last year, thanks to our generous sponsors.
