Only two pounds, seven ounces at birth, Terry Hitchcock blossoms and progresses through a single-parented childhood that includes his father kidnapping him, sleeping overnight in cars, and juvenile gang activity.        At 13, his maternal grandparents raise him to believe that nothing is impossible, an idea that serves him well later when he performs with the USAF, attends college on his own dime, and earns several degrees. He marries, has three children, and has a C-level position with a major corporation when his wife succumbs to cancer. Left jobless, too, he raises his little ones single-handedly, discovering the difficulties of the task.

     Wishing to publicize the harsh effects children experience in broken homes, he decides to bring media attention to the problem. Running from Minneapolis to Atlanta - the distance of 75 marathons in 75 days, he gains international media attention, followed by an award-winning film documentary, MY RUN, and a bestselling book, and has a podium from which to speak to thousands.

     Today, with Hollywood pursuing a movie about his life, Terry still works to see his Ultimate Dream come true: a Cabinet-level position that can help protect kids everywhere, a Secretary of Children in the White House!
