Come support ME/CFS at Isabela Hockett's senior project 5K Run/Walk! There will be music, food/drinks provided, delicious tamales for sale, and lots of fun to be had!

I am very excited to host this run/walk for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome for my senior project! I have recently learned about ME/CFS before my mom got diagnosed a couple months ago. 20 million people suffer worldwide, yet it is one of the most underfunded diseases out there.
