What is Flutters of Hope?Flutters of Hope Inc is a non profit organization that helps individuals and families affected by eating disorders. Disordered eating can come in many forms and is one of the most under-diagnosed diseases in America. The outcome of an undiagnosed disorder can be lethal, however with treatment recovery can be full, complete, and rewarding. Treatment does not come cheap and most insurances will not cover the all-encompassing needs of the patient - enter Flutters of Hope.Why an Ultra as a fundraiser? Distance runners are often misdiagnosed or under-diagnosed as an eating disorder patient due to the demands of their sport. Data shows that 1 in 4 adult males have some form of an eating disorder and in the female population that is doubled to 1 in 2. It is a guarantee that you have toed the starting line with at least one person suffering.
