Event Description

A 5k run/walk that supports the organization Stop Soldier Suicide. 100% of the race fee is being donated to this organization!*

I encourage you to take a moment to look through this organization's website and see the positive changes they're making in the lives of service members and Veterans who need mental health attention: https://stopsoldiersuicide.org/

This is a cause that’s important to me because I have family members who have served and know first-hand how big of an issue this is, yet it’s not talked about enough. There is a larger number of deaths in the military due to suicide, than deaths due to actual combat and a high rate of those deaths are from soldiers during basic training, when they’re undergoing a major life change.
