From Oscar-nominated directors Steven Ascher and Jeanne Jordan (Troublesome Creek), comes a black-humored cliffhanger of romance, guerilla science and the meaning of time.

What would you do if you were 29 and found you may only have a few years to live?

So Much So Fast is about the remarkable events set in motion when Stephen Heywood discovers he has ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) and his brother Jamie becomes obsessed with finding a cure.

5th Annual Jim Schoemehl 5k Run

The senior marketing II class at Webster Groves High School is organizing the fifth annual Jim Schoemehl 5K Run. The run was started five years ago when the Marketing teacher's husband was diagnosed with ALS. Her students decided to organize a run in his honor to help with research and the families financial needs. Each year, the run has grown and the students of Webster Groves hope to continue this tradition of bringing their school and community together to fight ALS. To learn more and register, click here.
