Suicide Awareness Virtual Run/Walk

September 6–12, 2026 is National Suicide Prevention Week — a time dedicated to bringing a difficult but vital conversation into the light. Suicide remains one of the leading causes of preventable death in our country and the 2nd leading cause of death among youth ages 10–24. By participating in this virtual race, you’re doing more than logging miles — you’re helping break stigma, spark conversation, and show that no one has to struggle alone.
This is a fully virtual event, which means you can complete your 5K, 10K, or Half Marathon from anywhere, at any pace, and on your own schedule during race week. Walk your neighborhood, run your favorite trail, use a treadmill, or gather friends and family for a meaningful group effort. However you choose to move, every step helps raise awareness and support a cause that impacts millions of lives.
Whether you participate in honor of someone, in memory of a loved one, or simply to stand in support of mental health awareness, your participation matters. Together, even from miles apart, we can make a powerful impact.
