Life;Story is Centerstone’s national walk/run for suicide prevention, bringing communities together across Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, and Florida for a day of hope, healing, and connection. Participants of all ages and abilities are welcome, from families with strollers and kids in the youth races to runners with dogs and virtual supporters joining from afar.
Whether you join us in person or virtually, you’ll be part of a meaningful experience that uplifts those impacted by suicide and celebrates the courage it takes to keep going.
The semicolon in Life;Story symbolizes a pause—not an ending—and reflects the belief that every person’s story has more ahead. That spirit is felt throughout race day with a welcoming, supportive atmosphere filled with community vendors, mental health and military‑specific resources, free giveaways, and crowd‑favorite perks like an event T‑shirt, finisher medal, and access to our curated Spotify playlist.
Proceeds from Life;Story help Centerstone provide mental health and addiction services for individuals with limited or no resources. By participating, you’re helping save lives, strengthening your community, and reminding others that their story matters—and that it’s far from over.
A $5 discount is available to 1st Responders using promo code, 1STRESPONDER5, and to Military/Veterans using promo code MILITARY5.
