Hey Everyone,
We are getting geared up and ready for the next Run For The Wounded 5K, 10K, and Walk. We are very excited to continue the tradition of this race from our son's Eagle Scout Project. He did a great job putting it all together. He did such a great job, that we decided to continue doing this race every year.
He raised a lot of money for The Wounded Warrior Project. And in fact they e-mailed us to let us know that the amount he raised was one of the biggest fundraisers that had ever been done for them! We are very proud of that! So this year we have made the goal $5,000.00. Hopefully we can reach it and even pass it.
We hope to see everyone back at the race, and please tell your friends and family about this great race and cause! Because the more money we can raise, means more support for our wounded heroes. Let's show them how much we care!!!
Thanks and we will see you at the races!

Course Maps and Descriptions
Hey Everyone! As race-day approaches I am getting very excited to see and meet all of you! Following are the course maps for each event. The maps are approximate distances; each of the courses will be measured more exact for race day. Please use these maps as a reference. Also, by following the "mile markers" these denote the direction of each course. I recommend studying the maps thoroughly and, if possible, driving or running the courses before race-day. Thanks so much and see you at the races!
