10th Anniversary Miles for Midwives: Come on down!

I write about this every year, but this year I’m one of the organizers for this event, so it’s even more near and dear to my heart.  We’re having the 10th Annual Miles for Midwives this coming weekend, October 6th, in Prospect Park.  Miles for Midwives is a 5K run/ walk race which jointly benefits the NYC ACNM chapter and Choices in Childbirth, both fantastic organizations which do a lot for promoting natural childbirth, making informed birth choices, education, and the advancement of midwifery as a profession.  It’s a great cause, and it’s *always* a fun morning.  First there’s the run/ walk, then a pee-wee race for the toddlers, plus a Birth/ Wellness fair full of goodies like yoga and massage, tons of information on birth/ mothering/ parenting resources in New York City, and even face painting for the little ones. It’s not too late to sign-up to race.  Register now! (And keep your fingers crossed for a nice sunny day).
