Our team JUMPED at the chance to support the @TheRunInTheDark event to cure paralysis! At ONWARD, we share the vision that Empowered by Movement, people with spinal cord injury (SCI) will enjoy life in every way that matters to them. Sharing a similar passion for restoring movement, @markpollock began Run in the Dark as part of his mission to cure paralysis in our lifetime. Today, Run in the Dark is a global movement in its 13th year, with 50 cities participating in the event, including Lausanne, where we have our Science & Engineering Center. As the Run in the Dark homepage says, Run. For those who dream to walk. Register here (runinthedark.org/event/lausa…) and join our Lausanne team on November 15th at Stade Pierre-de-Coubertin at 8:00 pm CEST. #EmpoweringMovement #SCI #RunInTheDark
