Dennis Banks, co-founder of the American Indian Movement, organized the first
Sacred Run across the country 28 years ago. The run is a staggered event that
covers the country by foot between February 11th and April 22nd, ending in
Washington, DC, on Earth Day. Along the way, the core group of runners is joined
intermittently by other walkers and runners. This year's closing ceremony was
held at the Lincoln Memorial. Banks has always been accompanied by Buddhist
monks from the Nipponzan Myohoji sect.
