OUR U.S.
Connection
Robert ‘Connor’ Dawes was born in Wisconsin in 1994. A child of two countries, Connor spent most of his life living in Australia and loving America.
Since Connor's Run began, friends and family have been hosting events to honour Connor and all kids with brain cancer.
However you'd like to do it, we'd like you to join us and experience the special brand of awesomeness that is Connor's Run. Take on a challenge of any kind: run, walk, roll, hop, skip, jump or dance. Or take on our 120,000 Step Challenge below.
