Warriors for MHE Run - Lubbock, Texas - Running

About The Warriors for MHE Run

The Warriors for MHE Run is a Running race in Lubbock, Texas consisting of a 1 Mile and 5K.

My son Caleb was diagnosed with MHE at the age of 2. He is currently 11 years old and has had two surgeries: one to reconstruct his arm and one to fuse his ankle. We are expecting many more surgeries to come as he ages and grows. Currently, the only treatment for his disease is orthopedic surgery to correct his deformities. MHE affects only 1 in 50,000 people. Due to the rarity of this disease, medical research and research funding is limited.
?
Caleb is very compassionate and came to us with a desire to help others with his condition. He and aKeep Reading couple of friends came up with the idea of having a run to raise money for research with the hope of finding a cure, or at least a better treatment option so others with this disease would never have to endure what he has.

Therefore, we will be hosting our run in Caleb's honor. All funds will go directly to the MHE Research Foundation. This foundation is organized by all volunteers and was established by a family whose son also has MHE. They are passionate about finding a cure and we are honored to support them. The 5K run will be held at Mackenzie Park in Lubbock, TX. A family friendly one-mile fun walk will also be available.
