We aim to contribute to meaningful causes, and a share of our profits will be donated to support research for Duchenne disease. With each person registering in a category, a contribution of 5€ will be made to this significant cause.


What is Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)?

DMD is a genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle degeneration and weakness.

Symptom onset is in early childhood, usually between ages 2 and 3. The disease primarily affects boys, but in rare cases it can affect girls. In Europe and North America, the prevalence of DMD is approximately 6 per 100,000 individuals.

Until relatively recently, boys with DMD usually did not survive much beyond their teen years. Thanks to advances in cardiac and respiratory care, life expectancy is increasing and many young adults with DMD attend college, have careers, get married, and have children. Survival into the early 30s is becoming more common than before.

Scientists are exploring a variety of promising approaches in the field of DMD. Our aim is to support these efforts in hopes of enhancing the lifespan and quality of life for those affected by this condition.
