Runners brave cold for Alzheimer’s Awareness Month

In mid-November, the Chattanooga Alzheimer’s Association hosted its second annual Run to Remember 5K and raised more than $9,000.

Despite the below-freezing temperatures throughout the end of November, 98 runners participated in the event, said Madison Vincent, communications manager for the local association chapter headquartered in East Brainerd.

The annual event is part of the association’s awareness efforts each November for National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month, which seeks to help those with Alzheimer’s disease and their families.
