The 4th Annual
Every Victory Counts Challenge
Run, walk, ride, dance, LIVE WELL. Your pace, your place - choose an activity that is right for you.
Participate from anywhere in the world by choosing your own activity and fundraising to help people with Parkinson's live well today!
Here's how it works:
#1: Choose an activity. Your challenge can be anything from hiking, yoga, dancing, pole walking, running, cycling, painting, swimming, meditation, jumping rope, boxing, wall sits, quilting, you name it! Pick any activity you enjoy and find some friends to join you.
#2: Register for the event. Start a team, join a team, or join us as an individual by clicking "register" or "start a team." We'll mail registered participants an EVC Challenge packet to help you achieve your challenge!
#3: Join us in July. Whether your challenge is one day, one week, or the whole month of July, we look forward to encouraging you and connecting with you as we achieve our activities together! Simply by participating, you could win a Catrike! Read on.
