While historically World Autoimmune Arthritis Day has run as an online convention, this year the event is really revving things up and hosting it in the form of a global race around social media and the internet! Not only will a Global Race Map send you to find helpful resources, but you will be invited to participate in live webinar chats (or “Detours”) and awareness activities (“Crowd Rallies”) sure to put our diseases on the map!
You don’t have to register to play, BUT you should. Part of registering means you can choose foundations to donate money to like the Arthritis National Research Foundation and/or Creaky Joints.
Another reason you should register? You can pick teams! Team Not Standing Still’s Disease definitely would love to have you race with me and all our sick peeps! It’s free and SUPER easy, just go to the website to learn more and register.
When you see “Why Play WAAD15 Alone? Play with Others!” on the registration page just type Not Standing Still’s Disease in the box. Then “like” and “follow” the WAAD social media pages for updates on all the cool, live things to do during the event.
It starts on the WAAD Facebook and Twitter pages at 12pm ET/USA on May 15th and runs continuously for 6 days.
See you in the pit!
