Max's Story: In the Fall of 2008, Max was running with his family in the Bushwhack race, and was cheered on by his sisters and brother as he followed them across the finish line. Later that fall Max was diagnosed with a rare and inoperable form of brain cancer. Max fought with determination but was unable to compete against this very aggressive form of cancer. On April 21st, 2009 Max lost his struggle.

A trophy will be awarded to the top finishers in each age division.
