Description
Sweat4Vets Virtual 5K Walk/Run
Grab a friend or loved one and go for a walk or run as a small token of sacrifice for our war veterans!
Our veterans, young & old, have sacrificed more than can ever be comprehended and a great number* of them are struggling with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder & succumbing to suicidal thoughts. Our bravest citizens need our help!
What is a "Virtual" 5K? It simply means you commit to walk/run 3.1 miles anywhere, anytime: by yourself on a treadmill, with a group of friends casually walking around your neighborhood, or as part of another race. The point is to build solidarity - we are all "sweating4vets" together - in our own ways and cities. In return, you'll become an official backer of the THUNDER ROAD crowdfunding campaign, get an awesome Sweat4Vets 5K T-shirt, AND have your full name listed in the End Credits of the THUNDER ROAD feature film!!
*As of Dec. 7, 2012, 103,792 soldiers deployed since 2000 have reported cases of PTSD, according to the Congressional Research Service.
Visit www.ThunderRoadFilm.com for more information about their cause and/or to pledge your support! Their Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign runs until September 29 and the target is $250,000.
(This event was inspired by Charlie Bewley, actor from The Twilight Saga movies, "The Vampire Diaries," and newest addition to the hit TV show "Nashville" cast, and his Sweat4Vets activities nationwide!)
