It’s time to lace up your running shoes for the 48th annual Sam Lapidus Montclair Run. The SLMR started in 1976 as the Montclair Run and quickly grew in popularity throughout the state.
In 2009 the run was renamed to honor Sam Lapidus, who lost his battle with Ewing’s Sarcoma, a form of childhood cancer, in November 2008 — just nine days before his 15th birthday. Five dollars of every runner’s registration is donated in Sam’s memory to the Alabama Center for Childhood Cancer and Blood disorders at Children’s of Alabama.
To date, the LJCC has donated more than $100,000 to the organization. Now hosting approximately 1,500 runners of all ages, the SLMR serves as a Thanksgiving Tradition for many Families and out-of-town visitors.
