Stomp Out Soldier Suicide Run/Walk

🏃‍♂️ Race Overview

Join us as we hit the pavement to Stomp Out Soldier Suicide! Most of us have heard the statistic that 22 soldiers commit suicide a day. Studies show that Veterans are at 50% higher risk of suicide than their peers who have not served. We are on a mission to reduce that number to zero and we need your help!
