Still not convinced? Here's what our community has to say about why they participate each year!
"I was diagnosed with AS in 1997. Began anti-inflammatory injections in 2002. Discovered I could run again in about 2011. The combination is slowing the progression of AS. I will complete my ninth and 10th marathons in 2018."
"I participate to support My Daughter (19) who was diagnosed with JRA at age 9."
"It’s a day of dressing crazy and having fun! Day to forget about RA!"
"[It's a] fun event, can dress & act silly. Remind people of PsA."
"It's become a tradition for my family! We walk together to honor my father-in-law (who has arthritis and "jingles in his jammies")!"
