Let’s Gooooo!

Joe Dailey is training for the Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon! He’ll complete the 26.2 miles on his hand bike! It’s his first time back on the course in more than two decades.

Joe has been living with a spinal cord injury since 2002 and trains with Allina Health Courage Kenny Rehabilitation Institute’s adaptive cycling program. This is the first year the marathon is allowing all mobility devices on the course.

September is National Spinal Cord Injury Awareness Month. Joe’s ride is raising money for research and raising awareness about what is possible for people living with spinal cord injuries.

Go, Joe.

We recently were proud sponsors of events that support our neurology programs focused on multiple sclerosis (MS) and Parkinson’s disease.

This included the 2025 Taste of Generosity in Minneapolis, which supports the National Multiple Sclerosis Society – and was our first MS event since we launched our multiple sclerosis program! We also sponsored the 2025 American Parkinson Disease Association Optimism Walk in Minneapolis, which is part of a nationwide movement to mobilize and inspire people to help put an end to Parkinson’s disease.

Showing up in the community for our patients is one of the reasons Allina Health is a leading provider of neurological care in the Twin Cities and Upper Midwest.
