    (sigh)…we are just over 10 days away from the beginning of this journey. Schools and youth groups from around the country, from Hawaii to Rhode Island, have created and posted name cards for each fallen soldier. The thousands of cards sit in my home, ready to meet the country roads of these United States when they are to be placed with a flag after each mile we run. My heart felt thanks to each of the educators and students who participated to make this run a personal run. Thank you for getting know the people…not the numbers.

    The citizens of the McMullen Valley area of Arizona (Salome, Wenden, Harcuvar, Hope) are planning a ceremony for August 24th, to redistribute the US Flags you put up on Highway 60. Unfortunately, the Arizona Dept. of Transportation had taken them down. We have gotten the flags back from them and will display them on businesses, private property, etc. This project was too important for us not to keep the soldiers memories alive. Thank you!!

Have your say

About

Beginning June 14, 2008, a small team of runners will run across America to raise awareness about the lives of those soldiers who fought, to activate their memories and keep their spirits alive, to support organizations that help wounded veterans and the families of those killed (Wounded Warrior Project, Yellow Ribbon Fund, Gold Star Family Support Center, and the 1st Lt. Michael J. Cleary Memorial Fund), and to aid the healing process for those Americans whose lives have been affected by the war.

We encourage all Americans to run one mile for a service member on our last day Sunday, August 24, when we will reach the gates of Arlington National Cemetery. It is on this day that we run in honor and remembrance of all fallen service members killed in both Iraq and Afghanistan (Operation Enduring Freedom).

We refuse any political affiliation or agenda, but simply honor those who have fought, and those who have fallen under the American flag.
