About
Beat The Bridge for Breakthrough T1D is a Seattle fundraiser for Breakthrough T1D, an organization dedicated to funding type 1 diabetes research, held on May 8, 2027, with an 8K (5-mile) run at 9:00 a.m., a 1-mile fun run at 8:45 a.m. and a 3-mile walk at 8:15 a.m. The program also includes a wheelchair race and a toddler race.
Its unique course crosses Seattle's University Bridge, which is raised during the event, challenging participants to get across before it lifts. Those who don't make it in time wait for the bridge to come back down, with music and entertainment. The Seattle community has supported this cause for more than four decades to advance type 1 diabetes research and treatment.
