Run for Mental Health 5K/10K/13.1 PHOENIX

Overview

Run for Mental Health Mental health is just as important as physical health, and every step you take can help make a difference. Join us for the Keep Going Run for Mental Health – a powerful event to raise awareness, help reduce stigma and start conversations around mental well-being. Support those who need it most, while improving your own mental health through the joy of movement. Let's break the silence. Let's keep going. Let's make a difference.
