For the first time in 39 years we have added a 5k event to the Sam Lapidus Montclair Run!  This will offer runners of all levels a chance to participate in this almost 40 year old Birmingham tradition. This year’s inaugural 5k run is sponsored by Schaeffer Eye Center.

People from all over Birmingham and the surrounding area start Thanksgiving Day by getting exercise and helping to raise funds and awareness for a great cause! Are you in? Please join us for the 39th annual Sam Lapidus Montclair Run on Thursday, November 26. Registration is open now! This meaningful community event celebrates the life of Sam Lapidus – his love of fitness and the LJCC; his love of family and friends; and his love of life which he lived to the fullest. Proceeds benefit the Alabama Center for Childhood Cancer and Blood Disorders at Children’s of Alabama and the LJCC Fitness Program.
All donations made to the Alabama Center for Childhood Cancer and Blood Disorders stay local and help children in Alabama by enhancing services, building new programs, and recruiting new physicians and researchers. The Center is much more than a place, it is an extraordinary partnership of local, national and international centers of excellence that provides care or treatment for 90% of the pediatric hematology-oncology patients in the state. Every gift stays local and has a direct impact on our patients and families. Your support will help us find better treatments for children with cancer and blood disorders.
