SUDC - Josh & Gus’s Run For A Reason - Denver
Aug 16th, 2008 by Steve Scheer
I am going to keep this short and sweet. Because honestly, its a topic that is difficult. So difficult I took the easy way out and had my wife guest author for me last year to tell you about it. You can read her post from last year here: Give Back Denver . But its important enough that I need to share.

An upcoming annual event is Josh & Gus's Run For a Reason. Josh Gove & Gus McDonald were 2 little boys that died suddenly in their sleep with no explanation. Too old to be classified as SIDS, SUDC is the lesser known affecting toddlers and children.

This year's event is Sunday, September 21st at Clement Park in Littleton. You can find the details and link to register here. You can also make a donation here.
In addition I do know that they are still looking for volunteers. Help is still needed for the event - perhaps you have a Scout group or a sports team of kids looking for some community service time- they sure could use you. They even need help hanging posters around town. If you are interested in that, Tami Gove can be reached through the main web site as well. They have had an outpouring of support from the community - including a major sponsorship from 9News and many others - all of the sponsors can be viewed here.
This event raised money to help research with SUDC and to assist families in need of support that have been affected. Josh & Gus's Run for a Reason is a celebration of Josh & Gus and all of the other children that have passed from SUDC. I hope you'll watch this slideshow and remember. Thanks Tami, for providing me with photos again so I can help you spread the word.

Steve and Laura,
Thank you so much for putting this together again this year. It is beautifully done and I am at a loss for words. It is truly through the assistance and generosity of people like you that we are able to pull off this event.
Thank you again from the bottom of my heart.
Tami Gove,
Josh’s Mom/Co-Chairperson
