Run For Their Lives 10K versus Monticello 10K It's enough to tick off the Good Humor Man but Hey! Life on Life's Terms! I signed for a Local 10K. Run For Their Lives is a 10K race, 5k run/walk and Youth Run that aims to place the spotlight on sexual slavery worldwide but specifically in Southeast Asia. Poverty in Thailand has forced hundreds of thousands of women into sexual slavery and . It is estimated that two are sold into slavery every minute. So.............. Immediately AFTER I Registered for the Run For Their Lives 10K. I found a 5K on the same day. Join us for an exhilarating 5K race from the base of the Saunders-MONTICELLO Trail to the top of Montalto. This unique and spectacular venue offers thrilling views of Monticello, Charlottesville, and the Blue Ridge Mountains. All proceeds will go to support the stewardship of the Saunders-Monticello Trail by the Thomas Jefferson Foundation, a nonprofit organization. All proceeds go the Monticello Fund which supports the maintenance of Saunders-Monticello Trail. I LOVE THAT TRAIL!!!!!Oh Well! Life on Life's Term. Run for Their Lives is a very important cause. 10K is more of a challenge versue Five k On a really happy Note! I found a Training group with plans to run a half Marathon and if I am REALLY Brave a Marathon in Washington D.C. in October. Yeah Ha! I'll be running with the Marines.  Abracadabra  |

Sometimes we get a bit disappointed in the way things work out. But you are still running. So there is good in it also. Enjoy the race. And know I will be cheering you on. Not in person. But in spirit. Dusty
