40 Miles for Life - Adoption Is An Option!

My Ultra Husband, My Hero, runs ultra-marathons, and now he's running one for LIFE!  Specifically:

40 MILES FOR LIFE - "ADOPTION IS AN OPTION!"

Not every expectant mother finds herself able to raise her child.

Not every couple finds themselves able to have a child.

Happily for both, adoption is an option!

As adoptive parents, we are strong believers in honoring God's gift of life through the gift of adoption. "Adoption Is An Option!" is our motto. Timed to coincide with the nationwide "40 Days for Life" campaign, we are pleased to announce our first ever "40 Miles for Life" race on Saturday, September 29, 2012 at 7:00 a.m.

The run is scheduled to be held during the first weekend of the fall "40 Days for Life" campaign. We will be running 40 miles from the abortion clinic in Frederick, Maryland (the one near Frederick Memorial Hospital) to the National Shrine Grotto of Lourdes at Mount St. Mary's University in Emmitsburg, Maryland.

This run is a completely independent endeavor. We do not have a race coordinator nor support stations. Please prepare for this run by providing your own supplies and support crew.

If you are interested in coordinating this race, expanding its enrollment, providing race support, or publicizing it, please feel welcome to contact us at FortyMilesForLife@hotmail.com.

If you are interested in duplicating this race in your own city or town, please feel welcome to contact us at FortyMilesForLife@hotmail.com.
