💕Cupid's Undie Run

It’s the first year for Austin Landing’s Cupid’s Undie Run. This race happens in 40 different cities around the world. “Cupid’s Undie Run is a “brief” fun run that takes place in the middle of a BIG party. Party, run (a mile-ish, at your own pace), party — all to find a cure to neurofibromatosis, a genetic disorder that affects 1 in every 3,000 children born. We encourage undies, but we get that it’s not for everyone, maybe costumes are more your style? So whether you start a team with your friends, join a team, or run solo, just come out, have a blast, and raise some money for NF research.”
