2020 ADAPT FUN*RUN

What a great virtual ADAPT FUN*RUN! Our runners really enjoyed their solo FUNRUNs through different parts of Austin, and we loved all the support from folks following their updates on social media. Best of all, you raised over $8,000 for disability rights, supporting both CTD and ADAPT of TEXAS! Thanks to our runners, William, Marisa, Dennis, Geoffrey, and Bryson, and big thanks to all who sponsored them for going the distance, while keeping their distance!

It's spring, so FUN*RUN time is here! While the communal event at Yellowjacket Stadium is NOT happening, CTD staff & members are doing their own spin on the annual ADAPT FUN*RUN for disability rights to raise funds for ADAPT of Texas and CTD! 

How does it work? Each runner has charted their own route, which they will run the morning of April 25. You can follow along on CTD's Facebook and Twitter pages as William, Marisa, Dennis, Geoff, and Bryson go the distance, while keeping their distance, to fundraise for disability rights!

Support one of our four runners to help fund CTD and ADAPT of Texas through the spring!
