October 10th, annually, 10K for the 10K!
Did you hear about the latest research— there are 10K nerves in the clitoris! This reveals thousands more nerve endings than previously understood and 2.5x more than innervate the penis! To educate and celebrate we invite all to take part in an annual ’10K for the 10K’ on 10/10. Its intention is for all members of the #Cliterati to help others become more Cliterate! This is about knowledge. This is about equality. This is about understanding and comprehending one’s anatomic capacity. This is about leading with joy. This is about self-discovery.
This is where you fit in. YOU can  host any sort of  ’10K for the 10K’. You are invited to choose whatever activity you wish in your hometown or wherever you are on 10/10.  Gather your #Cliterati for a run, a walk, or a knitting circle for 10K meters, steps, or stitches!
*FYI- 10 people walking for 10 minutes take a total of 10K steps. 100 steps/ minute/ person. There is your 10K! Each step = a nerve ending.
Click here for the FREE Information Pack which includes: activity options, facilitation-style questions, a video message from one of the researchers, article and research links, an on-the-dot poem about female anatomy and pleasure, a link to a hilarious performance piece, and links to undercarriage products and companies with whom we have partnerships. We want to hear about it!
