CUPID'S UNDIE RUN 2026

That’s right. You’re doing it for a good cause. Or…watching it from the sidelines for a good cause?

The cause is to raise awareness of and money for NF research. Neurofibromatosis (NF) is a group of three distinct genetic disorders—NF1, NF2, and schwannomatosis—characterized by noncancerous tumors that grow on nerves throughout the body.

It can include the skin, brain, and spinal cord. It's brought on by gene mutations, whether inherited or spontaneous, and it comes with symptoms like hearing loss, chronic pain, and other not-so-fun things. While there is no cure, treatment manages symptoms, allowing many to lead fuller lives.
