Our personal message:

Welcome to Lupus Runners!  We are an ever-expanding group of people who seek to raise support for and awareness of lupus research by running in races around the country.  We love to run and have friends and family who suffer from lupus.  We decided to band together to fight against lupus.  Our goal for 2008 is to raise $10,000 for the Lupus Foundation of America.

You can help!  Through the years we have met several fellow runners who want to help raise money, but either can't find a race dedicated to lupus or don't know how to raise money.
