10th Anniversary Walk to Defeat ALS
November 8, 2025, from 8 a.m. to 9:30 a.m.
Ripley’s Believe It or Not
19 San Marco Avenue St. Augustine, FL, 32084
On Saturday, November 8 the St. Augustine community will gather at Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for the 2025 Walk to Defeat ALS St. Augustine — to support and fund a cure for ALS.
ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), often called Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive motor neuron disease that gradually robs people of their ability to walk, talk, swallow and eventually breathe. With no known cause or cure, the St. Augustine community is coming together with determination to change this reality.
ALS patients, along with their families, friends, advocates, and supporters, will embark on a 1.5-mile journey through historic downtown St. Augustine in The Walk to Defeat ALS, holding onto hope that their steps will contribute to improving the lives of ALS patients living in the nation’s oldest city. Many participants walk in honor of loved ones still battling this life-limiting disease, while others walk in memory of those who have lost their fight. Many individuals, without personal connections to ALS, walk to support efforts that aim to fund research, making ALS a livable disease for all until a cure is found.
Registration begins at 8 a.m. with the walk starting at 9:15 a.m.
