After 20 incredible years of our The Pittsburgh Chapter of The Buoniconti Fund' s annual golf outing hosted by James Hoy and family , we’re turning the page — and hitting the trail. This year marks the debut of our community race series, built with heart, hustle, and a whole lot of first‑year grit. Our inaugural lineup features a Half Marathon *(16+), 10K*(16+), 5K*(12+), and a fast‑and‑fun Kids’ Dash* (3-11) , inviting runners, walkers, and wheel pushers of all ages to celebrate tradition in a brand‑new way. Whether you’re chasing a PR, jogging/walking/rolling with friends, or cheering on the next generation, this race is about momentum — honoring where we’ve been and running toward what’s next. Sign up for the race, be a sponsor, or make a donation today! *Indicates Age Restriction on Race The Buoniconti Fund to Cure Paralysis Committed to finding a cure for paralysis resulting from spinal cord injury and to seeing millions worldwide walk again, the Buoniconti family established The Buoniconti Fund to Cure Paralysis in 1992.
