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, we are supporting 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 continue to provide trail camp to veterans at no cost in 2025.


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.
