Seven days in the Healing Circle

By Bay Paulsen, Staff Writer

     The Healing Circle Run is a seven-day and approximately 700-mile journey connecting 10 Ojibwe reservations. A core group completes the entire journey along with the sacred items and pipes while tribal members and staff from each reservation join in for the days in which the core passes through their community. The run is completed in a relay, with one or more people covering every mile, until each day’s leg is completed. The following is an account from a core runner:
