💚 10 YEARS OF DEVIN’S DASH 💚

Before this day ends, we had to share this. 💚

On this very day in 2017, the first Devin’s Dash was held — and Devin was right there with us.

Watching this FOX 25 News video brings us right back to where it all began. A community came together around one incredible little boy, and what started that day has grown into something bigger than we ever could have imagined.

Today, Devin may be shining down on us from heaven, but his presence is still felt in every step, every hug, every act of kindness and every person who continues to show up as part of Devin’s Army. 💚

And now, 10 years later, it’s time to come together again.

Join us for the 10th Annual Devin’s Dash 5K and help us make this milestone year our biggest one yet!

🏃 Run it.
🚶 Walk it.
💚 Fundraise.
🤝 Start a team.
🎉 Or simply come spend the day with us!

Because Devin’s Dash is so much more than a 5K.

Before the race, enjoy Touch-a-Truck, music, a Viking Sports obstacle course for the kids and family fun. Then cheer on our runners and walkers, and stick around afterward for the celebration at Jack’s Abby with a live band, vendor market, food, craft b**r and an incredible community coming together for Devin.

Every registration, donation, fundraiser, sponsor and person who shares our story helps the WhyNotDevin Foundation to End DIPG continue supporting families with a child diagnosed with DIPG.
