Run Like a Hero is a charity race organized by the spanish Phelan-McDermid Syndrome Association, a non-profit organization that works to raise awareness about this rare disease and provide support to affected families.

This project was born in 2020 as a virtual initiative due to health restrictions and has already completed three editions, bringing together Phelan families in Europe, North America, and Latin America. In Spain, in addition to the virtual race, several in-person races are also held.

All funds raised through race registrations are dedicated to research and the organization of activities benefiting individuals with Phelan-McDermid Syndrome and their families.
