Augie's Quest

06/04/2026

More than 260 people came together at Angel Stadium for the Augie’s Quest Walk to End ALS on Lou Gehrig Day, raising over $50,000 and creating something even more meaningful: HOPE.

Thank you to our incredible committee, Johnny Rodriguez, Sam Cunningham, Erin Taylor, and Edgar Espina, along with our sponsors, volunteers, family teams, and everyone who showed up to support the ALS community.

As Sam shared so powerfully, “We keep fighting for more time, more memories, better treatments, and ultimately, a cure.”

Together, we are stronger. Together, we will end ALS.

Happy Global Running Day!

Meet the 2026 Team Quest4ALS New York City Marathon team. 🍎

23 runners. One mission.

This November, they’ll take on 26.2 miles through the streets of New York City while raising critical funds and awareness for ALS research. Every training run, every fundraising milestone, and every step toward the finish line represents hope for families facing ALS.

Together, they’re proving that ordinary people can do extraordinary things when they’re united by a purpose bigger than themselves.

We are incredibly grateful for this team and the commitment they’ve made to help change the future of ALS.

To our Team Quest4ALS runners: thank you for choosing to run for Augie’s Quest. We are honored to have you on this journey and can’t wait to cheer you all the way to the finish line. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

May is ALS Awareness Month, and we’re stepping into it with real progress.

ALS research is at a turning point. There are more promising ideas than ever, but not enough places to turn that innovation into real treatments.

That’s what Augie set out to change.

Because of this community, a major lab expansion at ALS TDI is now underway, accelerating the path from discovery to treatment.

More ideas tested. More progress unlocked. More momentum for people living with ALS. This is what innovation looks like in action. And we’re just getting started.

Movement with purpose.

This May, Crunch Fitness is turning workouts into impact through Love Your Muscles, a nationwide fundraising class supporting Augie’s Quest to Cure ALS. 💪🏽

On Saturday, May 9, communities across the country will come together to sweat, move, and show up for people living with ALS. 100% of proceeds go directly to research driving real progress toward cures.

We’re grateful to for using their platform and their people to make a difference in such a powerful way.
