Susan Baggaley, FNP-BC, MSN from University of Utah Health has over 30 years experience working in Headache Medicine and describes the significant improvement we’ve seen in #migraine treatment options during that time. Our Utah Walk/Run/Relax event raised important funds to support her program and the Utah migraine/headache community!

Beautiful Saturday morning at Castle Island in Boston, volunteering my time to run a 5k for Miles for Migraine 💜🧠 This run marks a milestone in my personal fitness journey which was reinvigorated in May as part of a company physical and mental wellness initiative cocurrent with Mental Health Awareness Month. Having completed my Couch to 5k training this week, I’m excited to volunteer my time and literal “sweat equity” to raise awareness for this organization and their commitment to improving the lives of individuals with migraine and headache disease.
