The five-mile run and two-mile fun run/walk begin at 9 a.m., and all proceeds generated from the event will support MCW juvenile rheumatoid arthritis research through the Madison Wied Pediatric Research Fund at the Medical College.

Nicholas’s daughter, Madison, is in remission from Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis, which she has suffered from since age 3. She is treated by Medical College of Wisconsin doctors from the Department of Pediatrics’ Rheumatology Division.
