The 8th Annual Miles for Midwives 5K Walk/Run is taking place Saturday, October 2nd in Prospect Park, Brooklyn. This is one of my favorite events of the year: families, midwives, doulas, and all others in the birth-world and most importantly, all birth-world supporters join together to improve maternity care. In addition to the race, there will be a Wellness Fair with activities including yoga, reiki, acupuncture, massage, henna, and more. There will also be a silent auction and a Kid's Corner with games for all. I'll be there straddling two roles: doula/midwife supporter/future midwife and Metro Minis enthusiast, as I'll be manning the store's table!
Join the race by registering here, or simply come to enjoy all the activities, wander through the Wellness Fair, and admire all the cute babies.
If you can't make it but want to help out, please consider donating! I've set up my very own fundraiser page with a goal of raising $500.
It's going to be a great day for an even greater cause.
