Team Heal Trauma
A charity running team for survivors…
Team Heal Trauma will run the 2008 Marine Corps Marathon and simultaneous Marine Corps Marathon 10k on Sunday, October 26, 2008 at 8 AM. Marathon runners are limited to a team of 25, but the 10k is unlimited. The team also includes volunteers who will be making a difference by providing support before, during, and after the races.

Team Heal Trauma is a charity running team dedicated to drawing attention to the pervasiveness and impact of psychological trauma caused by violence, abuse, neglect, disaster, terrorism, and war. Join the team as a sponsor to demonstrate your commitment to addressing this important public health issue. Our work together helps promote healing and wellness for survivors.

Team Heal Trauma events benefit Witness Justice, a national nonprofit organization providing support and advocacy for survivors of violence and trauma. Funds raised by Team Heal Trauma will be used specifically for education and advocacy around psychological trauma.

All marathon runners must raise a minimum of $500 and all 10K runners must raise a minimum of $100 by October 8, 2008, or self pledge via check or credit card to participate.

Team Heal Trauma welcomes donations by mail. Make your check payable to:

Important: Each check MUST note “Team Heal Trauma” and the runner's name. And please check if your company has a MATCHING GIFT PROGRAM to make your support go even further!

Jon Brazill $200.00 "Direct Quote from Forrest Gump (AKA Helga West): That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd run to the end of town. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd just run across Greenbow County. And I figured, since I run this far, maybe I'd just run across the great state of Alabama. And that's what I did. I ran clear across Alabama. For no particular reason I just kept on going. I ran clear to the ocean. And when I got there, I figured, since I'd gone this far, I might as well turn around, just keep on going. When I got to another ocean, I figured, since I'd gone this far, I might as well just turn back, keep right on going. When I got tired, I slept. When I got hungry, I ate. When I had to go... you know... I went. "
