Centerstone Life;Story 5K
for Suicide Prevention
Saturday, September 7, 2024
Harry L. Crisp Sports Complex
Marion, IL
Help spread the message that every life is valued and suicide may be prevented.
There is more to your Life; there is more to your Story.
Join us for the 2nd annual event in Marion, Illinois.
Centerstone's Life;Story 5K Run and Walk for Suicide Prevention is returning for its 2nd year. Last year, more than 240 people joined us to walk/run in support of suicide awareness.
Participants said:
"Wonderful event. Will be back next year."
"It was helpful to hear from the speaker about her experience. Many runs have a cause but you don't always get to hear the reason explained."
"I walked with a friend whose daughter had contemplated suicide. She made it through and is still writing her story. So glad I could attend."
This event will be professionally managed and timed by Fit2Time the Race Management of Fit2Run.
You may also join us virtually - run or walk anytime, anywhere from August 30 through the early morning of September 7.
