Just some short notes about “goings ons” in the Dystonia Support Group of Alabama world!! But, fun stuff!!!
First, Tim will be on the Troy University Public Radio, WTSU 89.9 (FM), tomorrow, October 19, 2011 from approximately 3 until 3:30. Dr. Chan Roark, new found friend through Dystonia, has invited Tim to participate in a discussion concerning Dystonia. Long story short with Chan, she is the one that found Dothan’s Support Group by way of the Dystonia Dialogue magazine while in Colorado with a friend that has Dystonia. Confused now!?!?!? Seriously, Dr. Roark teaches at Troy University and we owe her a huge thank you for helping get the word out about Dystonia. Here is the web site for WTSU: http://wtsu.troy.edu/ . There is a tab for on line listening, so maybe you can listen to the discussion.
Also, the Dothan Support Group will be meeting on November 12, 2011. This is the second Saturday in November. We want to have this meeting so we can reach out to all the new contacts we made during the run on 9/24/2011. We are also hoping that at that point we will have the final numbers for the run, which looks to be fantastic!!!!! Please mark your calendars for this date and get ready for the FUN NEWS!!! I will send out a reminder before that date.
There will be a Christmas Social in Birmingham, but right this second I do not know the date. As soon as I get a date, I will get that to you.
Have a nice week and we hope to see all of you on November 12, 2011 in Dothan and at the Christmas Social in Birmingham.

Alabama's 2nd Annual Dystance4Dystonia 5k Run results
First, let me apologize for the delay in getting posting the results for Alabama’s 2nd Annual Dystance4Dystonia 5k Run we had on 9/24/2011 in Dothan, Alabama. I found (after I had lost) the list of results with the times! I am just glad I found them. Dystonia Medical Research Foundation is still working on a final figure for the run, so you will just have to wait for the numbers, but I will tell you we are very proud of what we accomplished. As soon as we get them, we will get them on the blog.
Now, I must say thanks to all the participants. What we accomplished could not have been possible without all of you. This is the list of the people that placed and their times. I want to apologize right now if I have your name misspelled. So, thanks to all, again, and we hope to see you again next year!!
