WOW RUN 2011 Women Opening Doors For Women Body Boutique is pleased to celebrate its sixth annual WOW Run, a USTAF-certified 5K course that takes participants through a scenic, hilly route that begins and ends at the gym. The WOW Run will take place on Saturday, October 29, 2011 at 8:00am and will be followed by a reception that will be held at Body Boutique. This run is open to men and women. A run to benefit those in need: As a women's fitness organization, we wanted to host this run in support of another organization that supports, counsels and helps women in need. This year we are thrilled to announce that we are partnering with Women Build, a national affiliate of Habitat for Humanity!! Women Build is Habitat's volunteer program for women who want to learn construction skills and make a difference by building homes and communities. Women Build projects are regularly held by Habitat affiliates across the United States, and by Habitat organizations around the world. Women at these builds have furthered Habitat's home-building mission by helping to construct more than 1,700 houses.
