The MS Walk

The MS Walk is a 5/10k route (roughly 3 or 6 miles). The route itself is a 5k – meaning that you can complete it twice for the 10k option. Rest stops are provided along the route at each mile marker providing snacks, drinks, smiling volunteers, and first aid. SAG (support and gear) vehicles are available along the route as well for weary walkers and to ensure safety.

TeamMS

Walking on a team not only adds to the excitement of the MS Walk, but motivates/encourages individuals in their fundraising efforts. The MS Walk is a fundraising event, first and foremost, and they ask that each individual set a personal fundraising goal. However, there is no registration fee or minimum fundraising goal required.

Registration

There is no “deadline” to register for the MS Walk. Just go to the website and sign up for Team AOC.
