Cupid’s Undie Run 2021
Saturday, February 13 from 12-4 p.m.
This February, Cupid's Undie Run is going virtual, but don't worry, we'll still be running, laughing, and raising money for neurofibromatosis (NF) research. This year, we're giving you creative control. Want to bike a mile? Sure. Prefer to run backward? We're not here to say no. Eat a mile-long sandwich? Anything goes! After you finish your #MileThatMatters, you're invited to the Cupid's party from the safety of your own home. Join us at 4 PM EST on February 13th for dancing, live entertainment, games, and drink tutorials.
