Run 4 Isis Rising

In 2002 Isis was born with a severe and irreversible form of cerebral palsy. Never expected to survive her first night, she is now almost eight years old. In 2005, her uncle Alexi had the great idea of running marathons as a way to raise funds for Isis to receive intensive physical therapy at the Euro-Peds clinic in Michigan. Those marathons have so far raised enough money for six life-changing visits, as well as many lessons and pieces of equipment. As Isis ages, the needs change, and the running continues.
We are currently considering the formation of a Run for Isis 501c3 nonprofit organization. This would be a way for donors to contribute to Isis and her future (whether it includes trips to Michigan or not...)

We started this blog as a central site that Run for Isis donors and supporters can visit to:

Learn about recent Run for Isis events
Check out marathon schedules
View photos & videos of Isis's progress

We thank you for your support, and hope you will contribute to the Run for Isis. Please follow this blog and invite your friends to pay us a visit.
