Event Description


5k? 10k? How about 40,075k!


RUN to Change Lives & Her Adventures are teaming up to host an entirely new type of running challenge - running the circumference of the earth during the month of October! Commit to a mileage goal (run and/or walk), join the Facebook groups: RUN to Change Lives & Her Adventures, and log your mileage on RunSignup. No distance is too small. RUN the Globe isn’t about who can go the furthest, but how far we can go together.  

 

Domestic violence has no citizenship.


The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence estimates that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will experience some form of physical violence in their lifetime. The reality is, if you haven’t experienced domestic violence for yourself - somebody close to you will.


Our goal is to run the entire circumference of the globe throughout the month of October (Domestic Violence Awareness Month) to help spread awareness. That’s why we are partnering with a national, award-winning nonprofit called Speak Your Truth Today (SYTT). SYTT’s mission is to amplify the voices of victims and survivors of domestic violence through abuse education, networking resources, providing emotional support, and celebrating freedom. They facilitate one of the largest, gender-inclusive support groups for abuse survivors on Facebook with over 18,000 members, and have been able to help about 3 people leave abusive relationships every single week since forming in 2019.
