About this Event

We are excited about our upcoming 2022 RUN YOUR MILES 2nd annual 5k Run-Walk and Music Festival.

Last year 2021, we hosted our inaugural event at Rainbow Beach Park. Since then, we've come through what we hope to be the worst of the pandemic and look forward to enjoying a weekend filled with FITNESS, FOOD AND FUN! Something new this year, we've added a CAREGIVERS RECOGNITION DINNER in honor of Family Caregivers.

Beginning with a night of Honors and Recognition, we will celebrate 20 for '22 in our first 'Caregiver Recognition Dinner'. Then be sure to get your rest before meeting RYM's Runners Squad at the beach to participate in our 5k Run-Walk fitness challenge -where your only competition is the YOU before lockdown! After the cardio workout we'll keep the flow going - Our stage opens at noon … RYM Festival will feature guest speakers, business leaders along with several Chicago area talent and music artists performing LIVE @the beach. Enjoy the days' event, shop our retail and food vendors all while supporting a great cause!

WHO WE ARE

RUN YOUR MILES PROJECT is dedicated to bringing awareness to the more than 4.6 million families who serve as caregiver to a loved one diagnosed with cancer. We recognize the integral role of a family caregiver and the difference they make in the treatment process. CANCER IS A FAMILY DIAGNOSIS; everyone is affected.

We know that recent medical advancements along with technology has given patients more choices and the opportunity to continue treatment within the home setting. And with this comes the responsibility of family to insure the patient is receiving and responding well to therapies.

The reality is most family members come to this place with little to no experience. This lack of training has shown to severely impact the level of care in achieving the best possible outcome for patient.

RYM helps family caregivers to develop the confidence in their role. We work to prepare these family member to meet the challenge being a caregiver to loved ones demands.


CTE Training and Education Course: Our 4 Point Course focuses on:


  1. Caregiver Assessment: Assess the Ready Now for Preparedness
  2. Health & Medical Literacy: Clarity in medical and treatment dialogue
  3. Demands of A Caregiver: Address Challenges and Expectations
  4. Advocate: Support Systems for policy on Health, Mental and Financial support for Family Caregiver (this does not exist)

RUN YOUR MILES 5k Run-Walk Music Festival along with our partners help us to provide our program to the many families struggling to meet the demand of caring for their loved one.


WE HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!
