Miles4Hips started with Nancy’s quest to run a 100-mile race and to raise awareness and support the International Hip Dysplasia Institute, and over $5000 was raised for the IHDI! That first event was the starting point that became the Miles4Hips you see today.
“I was humbled and overwhelmed by the support and enthusiasm we received from the IHDI and from the hip dysplasia community. With the support and encouragement of IHDI and some passionate and determined hip dysplasia advocates and friends, we decided to continue to develop the Miles4Hips initiative. Through our efforts, we hope to promote hip dysplasia education and awareness; be a reliable information source for hip dysplasia patients, families, and friends; garner support for the IHDI as they commit to improving the lives of others living with this condition; and promote movement in all capacities for healthy hips and minds!”
