The first 4th of July Free the Mind/Anchor the Soul 5K Walk/Run will raise awareness of suicide and will benefit the Bryce Warner Scholarship Fund. According to the Centers for Disease Control, suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death for teens and young adults aged 15-34. Stigma around suicide often prevents young people from talking about their thoughts and feelings, and can be a barrier to getting help.
The run will begin and end at Milton-Union Memorial Stadium, 225 Jefferson St., West Milton. The course includes a 1-mile loop in the woods. Check-in and race-day registration is from 8-8:45am, with the race beginning at 9. Prizes will be awarded to the top three male and female finishers in several age categories: 6-14; 15-19; 20-30; 31-40; 41-50; 51-60; 61-70; and 71 and over.
The fee is $26 and includes a commemorative T-shirt. Children under 5 may accompany a parent at no cost, without a shirt. To receive a T-shirt and sparklers, register online before June 24 at www.cantstoprunningco.com. Pre-registrants can pick up race packets in advance at Can't Stop Running Co, 321 N.
