    Join us in celebrating our dad’s 62nd birthday the best way we know how, by moving together.

    This 5K event is focused on stroke awareness in honor of our father, who suffered a stroke five years ago and continues to face ongoing challenges.

    This event is partnered with KABLE (The Korean American Brothers & Sisters in Law Enforcement). The 5k not only to raise awareness but also to bring the community together in support of individuals and families affected by stroke. It’s something very close to our hearts, and we am putting a lot into making it impactful. Donations will be going to a Rehabilitation Facility for Stroke Recovery.

    Walk it. Run it. Push it. Cheer it in honor of survivors, fighters, and families. And as always, don’t forget to move today! 🏃‍♀️
