Downtown Dyersburg Courthouse Square, Dyersburg TN
Saturday, October 18th, 2025
The "March" was the brainchild of Jerry Edmundson, former director of the Dyersburg/Dyer County Union Mission. Edmundson created the race in 1991 to promote the Mission's youth programs, and the race has been held on Dyersburg's Square the third Saturday of October every year since. In 2016, when the Mission relinquished sponsorship of the event, Sarah Alley and a committee of supporters renewed the race as the Autumn March for ALS Awareness, using the same courses laid out years ago. Edmundson returned to officially start the 2016 race.
