The Run For Love: 5k Run & 1 Mile Walk is run on a certified course with beautiful scenery. The run will take place mainly on the paved golf cart paths that will take you through the woods, the green belt areas, by lakes, through small tunnels, across bridges and on the scenic routes through the planned community of Peachtree City. The course was voted the Best Course by the Georgia Athlete Magazine.
The Run For Love is a fundraiser for Love's Foundation. Love's Foundation is a non profit 501(c)3 that was founded in the wake of the premature birth of my daughter, Love Speed. She was born on March 23, 2014 at 21 weeks. She lived for a little over an hour but was to underdeveloped to continue life. The mission of Love's Foundation is to provide financial assistance to bereaved parents with making final arrangements for their beloved baby that has passed away due to premature birth, complications of pregnancy, stillbirth, or complications at birth.
