About this race

Mental health touches every family, workplace, school, and community. Miles for the Mind creates a welcoming space to move together, support one another, and connect people with local resources.

Miles for the Mind brings our community together for movement, connection, and mental health awareness. Whether you run, walk, ruck, volunteer, donate, or cheer, your presence helps remind others they are not alone.

This event is about more than miles. It is about showing up for each other, starting conversations, supporting mental health resources, and reminding people that they are not alone. Participants can choose the timed 5K run/walk or the untimed 1-mile walk, making this a welcoming event for runners, walkers, families, teams, veterans, first responders, and anyone who wants to support the cause.

The event will also feature a Mental Health Resource Village with local nonprofits, providers, community partners, and organizations offering information and support. Proceeds will benefit Silver Circle Foundation, Inc. mental health initiatives and local nonprofit partners working to support mental health, suicide prevention, veterans, first responders, youth, and families.

If you or someone you know needs immediate emotional support, call or text 988.” The 988 Lifeline provides free, confidential support 24/7.
