🏃‍♀️ Race Overview

This is the fifth annual "Run For Her Life" virtual/in-person 5K and Half-Marathon!

💖 Our Mission

The Phoenix Phase Initiative is an Iowa-based non-profit dedicated to helping women who have been sexually trafficked around the world. These women are rarely given a chance to escape and, when they do get the chance, they RUN for it!

Support: The Phoenix Phase Initiative is there so they have a place to run to where they can be accepted, receive counseling, and learn job skills so they can break the cycle and create new lives for themselves and their children.
Learn More: Visit www.phoenixphaseinitiative.org or check out our video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNKERTiN0Fw.
Call to Action: Help us help them by RUNNING with them toward freedom, restoration, and a life free of pain and fear!
