About the race

Now in its fourth year, the event blends sport with mental-health advocacy, supporting wellness for health care trainees and working to reduce stigma around seeking help.

The race honors a young woman whose death inspired the effort and partners with local institutions and sponsors to promote community mental wellness. The atmosphere is community-focused.
