Miles For Justice - Breonna Taylor

Every day I will dedicate a 5km (3.1mi) run to Justice For Breonna Taylor “5k for $5k”. Breonna, an EMT, was murdered by Louisville Metro Police Officers in her home as she lay in bed. The plain clothed officers fired their weapons without regard for innocent human life and struck Taylor eight times. To this day no one has been held accountable for Breonna’s death. There is no video footage of the raid for the world to see and the laws in effect oppose our hope for justice. If Black Lives Matter then known killers must be arrested and prosecuted whether the murder is on tape or not. Say her name and join me on this journey to raise $5,000 to seek Justice for Breonna Taylor.

I have completed a 3 mile run for 100+ consecutive days and am looking to push the streak to 137 days. I run a 5K a day for justice and I will continue to run each day until charges are pressed against those responsible (Brett Hankison, Jonathan Mattingly, Myles Cosgrove) for murdering Breonna Taylor. In June I ran a 5k every day to raise $5,000 for The Action Pac’s Grassroots Law Project. That “5k for $5k” (pledgeit.org/blacklivesmatter) took 37 days and subsequently this campaign for Breonna Taylor will consist of 37, 5km runs which will cover approximately 125 miles.

Please consider a pledge per mile or making a flat donation. The funds will be donated to Until Freedom, which has organized several demonstrations in Kentucky to demand justice for Breonna Taylor. Until Freedom is the organization behind the 500 person march at the Kentucky State Capital and the protest outside Attorney General Daniel Cameron’s home, where 87 people were arrested. In total more than 400 people have been arrested for protesting Breonna’s murder while ZERO have been arrested for the actual murder. Stand with Bre and make a pledge to seek the justice she and her family deserve. Contact: @stretchmurphy www.strava.com/athletes/stretchmurphy
