The 2018 Saskatoon Gutsy Walk is happening today.
The walk will start at 2 p.m. at Meewasin Park.
This year the goal is to raise 75 thousand dollars towards Chron’s and colitis research.
Chron’s disease and ulcerative colitis are the two main forms of inflammatory bowel disease and are autoimmune diseases that cause the body to attack itself which leads to inflammation of all or part of the gastrointestinal tract.
IBD can also cause abdominal pain, cramps, internal bleeding, fever, fatigue and other symptoms.
Walks will also be held in Prince Albert, Swift Current and Regina.
