It's 21 degrees. "Oh my gosh!" shouted Drew Morin as he bobbed to keep from freezing.
 
Rexburg roads were empty early Saturday morning, most people were just getting up, but not these runners.  The 21-degree weather could not stop them from supporting their cause.
 
"It's really cold, but it's for a really good cause so we are all really excited." said
Heather Gygi Rexburg Resident
 
They combat the cold for Lauren Sullivan, a mother of three young children, who was diagnosed with MS six months earlier.
 
"I think that it is a great cause to raise money for people that need some help paying medical bills, and things like that. So I decided to come and help out. " Said Josh Munnz a BYU-Idaho Student from Menan, ID.

Organized by Julianne Grimm a family member, runners in the 5 K were invited to donate $5 to help support the family.
 
"The family has just been struggling, and I live far away from her, so this is a way for me to help her without actually having to be there. She can't walk. She has to always have help. Even to do a lot of stuff, it is really hard for her. She doesn’t feel like she can really be a mom to her three kids.” Said Julianne Grimm, Lauren's sister-in-law.
 
After hearing their story community members were inspired to take action.
 
"I was just touched because I’m a mom, I have a three year old and then I am pregnant with my second and so I just read their story a little bit and was kind of touched." Said Jamie Hilton a pregnant mother.

Grimm was glad to see so many people participate in the run and support her family.
 
"It was good. I appreciate everyone for coming out! No one was obligated to but they just came out for a good run and a good time." Said Julianne Grimm Lauren's sister-in-law
