Committed to giving back, National Restoration®️ North Carolina was a Gold Sponsor at The Allison Woods Halloween Hobble held on Oct. 7 in Statesville. We were onsite to cheer the runners on and support the community. Our CEO, David Cashion, paced one of our amazing friends, Micah Sulewski, on the last portion of the 100-mile endurance run. Due to severe blisters, Micah valiantly ran over 65 miles, nearly 3 marathons!!! National Restoration raised funds for Race to Erase MS and the Allison Woods Outdoor Learning Center.
The Allison Woods Halloween Hobble is a spooktacular ultramarathon that combines the thrill of long-distance running with the festive spirit of Halloween, all while contributing to charitable causes. The event started at 8 a.m. with a 30-hour limit for a 100-mile race. Each participant received a medal for participation. Through generous donations and support, we raised over $1,500 for Race to Erase MS. The Allison Woods Outdoor Learning Center has raised over $4,000.
“We are so thankful for everyone’s support and efforts!”

“Many thanks to National Restoration for their support for our organization. What a weekend! I saw friends, family, strangers, kids, and Community. But what I saw through the weekend was a community of all these people coming together to have a fun weekend of running and supporting one another. These events would not happen without support. Lots of emotions and problem-solving can come in an endurance event. And support is always appreciated and sometimes needed. And I love how these events parallel life. Cause we all have things we go through, and it is so much easier to go through it with a community of people who care about you. And sometimes those people we meet on the trail become that community. Eventually, they also become like family. I love this community and I love how these people come together to make a small weekend such a memorable time. Thank you all! It is so appreciated.”
