Warming up for Dystonia walk

Mary Guy, leader of the Sudbury and district Dystonia support group, is geared up to walk five kilometres in the Freedom to Move Walk and Wheel for Dystonia event June 12.

Dystonia is a movement disorder that causes the muscles to contract and spasm involuntarily.

The walk, which raises funds for Dystonia reasearch and awareness about the condition, takes place at the Howard Armstrong Recreation Centre, 4040 Elmview Dr., in Hanmer.

Registration begins at 9:30 a.m., followed by the walk at 10 a.m., followed with a barbecue.
