| The APDA is the
largest non-profit grassroots Parkinson’s organization in the country,
funding medical research and providing education and outreach to
patients and family members free-of-charge. “Our mission is ‘to ease the burden - to find the cure,’” said APDA West Coast Assistant Director John Dixon. “The ION® Bridge to Breakwater event will help bring us closer to our goal of ending Parkinson’s disease once and for all”. Portions of the entry fee for those that sign up through the APDA will be donated to the APDA. "All participants in the Labor Day Weekend race will also be able to donate directly to the APDA and the numerous other non-profit organizations and charities affiliated with the ION® Bridge to Breakwater® race," stated Dave Behar, Event Founder and Executive Director. Likened to San Francisco's famous Bay to Breakers race, the unique 12K/5K races are held along the Los Angeles Harbor in San Pedro, starting at the Vincent Thomas Bridge, venturing along the Waterfront, around the Federal Breakwater at Cabrillo Beach and back to the Cruise Ship Promenade. Races include Running, Walking, Inline Skating, Skateboarding, and a Bike Tour of the revitalizing Waterfront and downtown. A 1K "SPeedash" is also held for kids 10 and under. About ION® Bridge to Breakwater® Inspired by Los Angeles City officials and dozens of fellow San Pedro community members, the ION® Bridge to Breakwater® race is a "Celebration of LAbor" and "Active Participat.ion" – a homegrown, original, one-of-a-kind event series, founded by San Pedro's visionary native son, Dave Behar. Participants from all over the country include competitive and recreational athletes with prizes awarded to division winners, centipedes and those donning the most creative costumes. |
