Mike’s Rib Run
Run. Eat. Support Epilepsy Research.
Join us for a meaningful day in honour of Dr. Michael Robern. Mike was deeply committed to advancing medical research. This event brings together two of his favourite things—fitness and food—to support clinical research for people living with epilepsy. Whether you run, walk, or come for the BBQ, you’re part of something bigger.
