Purpose and beneficiary
The event is a fundraising race to raise money for the Parkinson’s community. One hundred percent of proceeds are designated to Rock Steady Boxing (RSB). RSB is described as a boxing-inspired, non-contact exercise program for people with Parkinson’s disease that focuses on improving strength, balance, and overall quality of life. The program uses exercises such as boxing drills, stretching, bicycling, and jumping rope and provides a supportive community for participants.
The event page also summarizes Parkinson’s disease as a progressive neurological condition with symptoms such as tremors, slow movement, muscle rigidity, and impaired balance, caused by loss of dopamine-producing brain cells. The page states that about 90,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease each year. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
