Please join us for our third annual Mental Health Movement 2K | 5K | 10K Run-Walk! All three events will be chip timed.https://runsignup.com/Race/MI/Alpena/MentalHealthMovement5KRunWalk
We, at Northeast Michigan Community Mental Health Authority (NeMCMHA), aim to bring awareness to mental health in our four-county catchment area of Alcona, Alpena, Montmorency, and Presque Isle, while also reducing the stigma of mental health.
These events can be completed by anyone! All routes are wheelchair and stroller accessible. You can try for a personal best or simply enjoy the beauty of our river routes! The 2K and 5K events are available to all runners and/or walkers, while the 10K is geared toward runners. All participants will receive a race bib with chip timers to allow for accurate timing.
