Are you looking for a new, fresh and interesting challenge?  Then I invite you to join us in the RUN FOR THE HEROES – 260 MILE RUN ACROSS GEORGIA and RELAY from May 27 to May 31, Memorial Day.  The Race is limited to five days, so about 2 marathons a day for five days, or about one 100K a day for four days, or 87 miles a day for three days.  Pick your challenge.  Finally, why not use this Race to have a purpose and make a real difference in the world as we know it, by promoting and fundraising for our Veterans through the House of Heroes, a very worthy group on a very worthy weekend.  The promoting and fundraising is not required but encouraged.

 

Let me tell you about the House of Heroes and our Veterans.  I have been involved with them for the better part of a year now, as a laborer, carpenter, adviser, reviewer, runner and speaker.  I spent many days visiting and working with our Veterans.  Many of our older veterans are from wars like WWII, Korean, and Vietnam .  Some of them are in pretty good shape physically, mentally and financially, and some of them are not so good in any of these categories.  These Veterans served and never asked how or why we are at war, but they took a no questions asked attitude and served our country.  So regardless, if the Veteran is in good shape, or not so good shape, I have taken the same no questions asked attitude and serve them as they have served us.  I feel an obligation to help these Veterans since they have done so much for me and the United States of America .  By working with these Veterans I hope to make a difference in their lives as much as they have made a difference in ours. 

 

The RUN FOR THE HEROES - RUN ACROSS GEORGIA and RELAY is a way to promote and raise funds for the House of Heroes, a charitable organization that provides assistant to our Veterans and their spouses by making repairs, improvements and maintenance to their homes at no charge to them.  These men and women have served our country since its inception and have made tremendous sacrifices for not only our freedom, but the world’s freedom as well.  See the Benefactors page for stories about some of these Veterans. 

 

If the challenge of running 260 miles does not interest you at this time, please consider running the Relay with seven of your friends, and if possible, please join me in using our love of running to help this worthy cause.
