From the Race Organizer
Please join us for our fourth annual Mental Health Movement 2K | 5K | 10K Run-Walk! We, at Northeast Michigan Community Mental Health Authority (NeMCMHA), aim to bring awareness to mental health in our four-county catchment area of Alcona, Alpena, Montmorency, and Presque Isle, while also reducing the stigma of mental health. All events are chip timed and can be completed by anyone! You can try for a personal best or simply enjoy the beauty of our river routes! Our 2K and 5K routes are wheelchair and stroller accessible, while our 10K route does have a street with curbs that must be crossed two times. The 2K and 5K events are available to all runners and/or walkers, while the 10K is geared toward runners. All participants will receive a race bib with chip timers to allow for accurate timing. The 10K run will begin at 8:30 a.m., followed by our 2K and 5K run/walks at 8:45 a.m. Registration for those aged 11 & up costs $20 and includes a long-sleeved race shirt when you register by April
