SHIFRUNS is a 20 ski run challenge on Vail Mountain, followed by an Aprés Party at Cucina at The Lodge at Vail with giveaways, raffles, silent auction, food, drinks specials and live music. This event is hosted by local non-profit Runs For ALS, Inc. ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig Disease, is a neuromuscular disease that affects motor neurons. Nerve cells break down, which reduces functionality in the muscles they supply. There is currently no known cause and no known cure. Life expectancy for ALS WARRIORS is 2-5 years, and Runs For ALS, Inc has vowed to do what they can to bring a little more peace to their journey. Vail local, Pamela Shifrin, started SHIFRUNS to raise awareness and money for her brother, Brian, who lost his battle in 2019. In his memory, Runs For ALS, Inc was created and is completely run by volunteers and all funds raised during events are donated directly to ALS WARRIORS. Join us and ski for those who can’t.
