#teamsparkle is running the So Cal Ragnar in order to raise awareness & money for Rett Syndrome & Girl Power 2 Cure (a non-profit dedicated to finding a cure for Rett Syndrome). This terrible disease has trapped close to half a million girls in their bodies, leaving them unable to speak, walk, or even use their hands. #teamsparkle is running because these girls can’t, but we believe someday they will!
We will be running 200 miles for 200 girls during our #ragnar4rett adventure. But just because you aren’t running Ragnar with us doesn’t mean you can’t participate… join #teamsparkle and participate in our #ragnar4rett journey by signing up for the #teamsparkle virtual 5k (& yes, ALL profits will be donated to Girl Power 2 Cure).
This year we have THREE different race options to choose from:

Over the past four years Sparkle Athletic and the #teamsparkle community have raised over $100,000 for Girl Power 2 Cure’s quest to find a cure for Rett Syndrome. Thank YOU for joining our movement and contributing to this amazing cause – we know that one day these girls will thank you to.
