Episode 2164: ATL Bares it ALL - Cupid Undie Run 2026

Cupid’s Undie Run Atlanta is a premier "party with a purpose" benefiting the Children’s Tumor Foundation (CTF). Participants run a one-mile(ish) course in their underwear to raise awareness and funding for Neurofibromatosis (NF)research. The "heart" of Cupid’s Undie Run is solidarity. Those living with Neurofibromatosis (NF) cannot choose to remove their tumors; runners choose to strip down to their undies to bring visibility to this often "unseen" genetic disorder. Every dollar raised supports the Children’s Tumor Foundation in funding clinical trials and developing treatments for the 1 in 2,500 people born with NF. The Atlanta (ATL) energy is widely considered the wildest in the country. This is due to a unique blend of Southern hospitality and a high-octane "party-with-a-purpose" culture. While other cities may jog, the Atlanta crowd transforms the one-mile run into a high-energy parade of creativity and community spirit. The 2026 fundraising goal for the Atlanta chapter is $60,000. * Direct Impact: Funds support CTF research that has already led to the first-ever FDA-approved drug for NF. * The Motto: "We run in the cold so they don't have to," symbolizing the physical discomfort runners brave to support those facing medical challenges. While the event is famous for red undies, creativity is encouraged. Popular outfits seen at the starting line include: * Custom tutus and capes. * Full-body dinosaur onesies and superhero themes. * DIY "Human Disco Balls" and elaborate team-coordinated costumes. The run is just the beginning. The legendary after-party features: * Open Bar: Available for "top undie-achievers" (those raising $250+). * Entertainment: Live DJs, dance-offs, and a judgment-free atmosphere. * Awards: Trophies for top individual fundraisers and teams. Lindsey’s #1 Tip: Don't let the "undie" part intimidate you. The second you walk through the doors, you realize you aren't alone—you're part of a movement. "Your bravery for one afternoon helps a child be brave for a lifetime." 🔗 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) What is Neurofibromatosis (NF)?
