Joggn' for the Noggn' set for Saturday

A Spokane woman's personal crusade to raise awareness about brain tumors has turned into a successful fun walk/run set for this Saturday.

In 2008, Joan Ambriz was diagnosed with a non-cancerous brain tumor.

 Soon after she was diagnosed she underwent a 16 hour surgery to remove the mass.

In 2009, Ambriz started Joggn' for the Noggn' a 3K  fun run/walk at Mission park and raised $8,000 dollars.<
