Whether you wake up at 4 a.m. to lace up or spend the night before hand-lettering motivational signs, the Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon Weekend has a place for you. There’s no other running event that weaves a winding path through two major cities, circles around three urban lakes and travels across the Mississippi as fall leaves start to change. The enthusiasm of generations coming out to cheer on their neighbors, toast mimosas and ring noisemakers mirrors how life-changing it feels to cross the finish line. Our Marathon Weekend connects us through the energy of movement, bringing people of all walks of life together.

Are you looking for a fun way to volunteer for the Parkinson's Foundation &amp; raise your voice while raising awareness? Come out and cheer on our incredible athletes! Learn more and apply at [Parkinson.org/ChampionsCheer](http://www.parkinson.org/ChampionsCheer).
