Knox County Suicide Prevention 10k

Website

The Knox County Suicide Prevention 5K/10K is an annual walk/run event held at Ariel Foundation Park in Mount Vernon, Ohio. This community-focused race offers both 5K and 10K distances and welcomes participants of all ages, including walkers, runners, joggers, dogs, and strollers. The event aims to raise awareness about suicide prevention and support those affected by suicide.

A special memorial takes place during the event, featuring the lighting of the tower and bridge to honor loved ones lost, with families encouraged to bring photos to share. Proceeds benefit the Knox County Suicide Prevention Coalition, supporting education and resources to reduce suicide rates locally. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
