THE 5K

When: September 25th, 2016

Registration opens at 9:00 am

Run starts at 10 am

Where: MacDonald Park

Run With Me is a 5km run/walk that promotes a change in the way people perceive those diagnosed with mental illness. The event will occur in early October and will include guest speakers who have struggled with mental illness and/or have had a loved one who struggled with mental illness. The event will also focus on the correlation between exercise and its positive effects on the emotional state of an individual. Also at the event will be a resource fair where students and community members can learn about on-campus resources at Queen's University.

 

Run With Me is not just a title. Participants are asked to dedicate their walk/run to a loved one who has struggled with mental health or perhaps to their own battle with mental health, or to someone who helped them through a mental health crisis. They can do this by filling in the blank found on the back of the participant t-shirts that read "I'm running with ______________".

 

Cost is 15$ and includes a t-shirt.
