To date we have donated $490,000 to Cure Alzheimer’s Fund.

I know I say this each and every year, but wouldn’t it be AMAZING to make this year the biggest one yet?

Check out our Raceday Video!

We are a 5k race (USATF-sanctioned) and a 2-mile fun run in Roseland, NJ.  This event was created because Carolyn’s (co-founder/director) mom had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and she couldn’t find a race supporting its research.

Running 4 Answers, a race against Alzheimer’s mission is 3-fold:

  1. Raise money for and awareness of Alzheimer’s disease.
  2. Host a well-managed 5k race.
  3. Create a fun community event.

We chose to donate our proceeds to Cure Alzheimer’s Fund (www.curealz.org).  This organization was chosen because of its concentration solely on research.

The mission of Cure Alzheimer’s Fund is to fund research with the highest probability of slowing, stopping or reversing Alzheimer’s disease. So far, Cure Alzheimer’s Fund has contributed $88 million toward research and has identified more than 70 genes linked to the disease…and they’re not stopping until there’s an end to Alzheimer’s.

For more information, please visit their website at www.curealz.org and “Why This Cause” on our site.


We have donated $490,000 over 14 years.  


We Are Actively Seeking Sponsorships and Donations!

Who Said Planning A Race Would Be Easy?

We knew it wouldn’t be. Between kids, husbands, games, work, dinner, homework, one cat and one dog; life was already chaotic enough. But we also know it will all be worth it. All the elements are falling into place for April 10th. We have secured a most generous Presenting Sponsor, Tri-Coastal Design of East Hanover, NJ. Our…

Running 4 Answers’ Inaugural Race Recap
