The Mind Miles Initiative

Why?

The greatest race is the race for a healthy mind.  We believe movement is medicine for your mind.  It’s a journey that doesn’t happen overnight but one worth fighting for everyday.  It’s the foundation of Root Runners, the reason we had to have a home base, a retail store that could act as a foundation for our communities mental growth.  We want to educate people on the benefits of being active and the significance it has on not only improving your physical health but creating a healthier, stronger mind.  It’s about being physically, mentally and emotionally healthier for yourself and others around you.  Just to clarify, “being active” includes any type of movement your body will allow you to do, walking, running, a mixture of both – no excuses.  Let us help you help yourself.  Join the Why, get involved and get moving.. Because your Mind Matters, You matter.

For every mile logged on Challenge Hound, we will be donating .5$ cents to a cause near and dear to our hearts, 403 Reasons to Run.  A local organization created In honor of the 403 first responders that died on September 11th.

Their mission is to “do good things for good people” by continuing to support local Fire, Police and EMS communities, their families and members of the community who experience a catastrophic life altering event and are in need of assistance.
