    The Second Annual Licking County Suicide Prevention Coalition Awareness Race will return in 2026 as a powerful, community-driven event focused on connection, remembrance, and hope. Hosted by the Licking County Suicide Prevention Coalition, this race brings together families, survivors, first responders, educators, behavioral health providers, and community members who share one goal: saving lives.

    Participants can choose to walk or run, whether competitively or at their own pace. The event is designed to be welcoming to all ages and abilities. More than just a race, this gathering creates space to honor those we have lost to suicide, uplift those who are struggling, and stand alongside individuals and families impacted by mental health challenges.

    Throughout the event, attendees will have access to local prevention resources, crisis information, and opportunities to connect with coalition members and partner organizations. Proceeds support local suicide prevention efforts, including education and awareness initiatives, gatekeeper trainings, and outreach that reduces stigma and increases help-seeking in our community.

    In its second year, the Awareness Race continues to build momentum as a visible reminder that suicide prevention is everyone’s responsibility. By showing up, participants send a clear message: you are not alone, your life matters, and help is available.

    Whether you run in memory of someone, in support of a loved one, or simply to stand with your community, your presence helps renew hope and strengthen our shared commitment to prevention in Licking County.

    Lace up your shoes and bring your crew!

    Bolivar Athletics & Dankhouse Brewing Company are teaming up for a 4-Mile Run/Walk on June 27, 2026. Walk it, Run it & celebrate together with food, games & beverages.

    A message from race director Pelege Lareus:

    Hi, my name is Pelege Lareus, I am the founder of Bolivar Athletics. I invite you to sign up and join us for our inaugural community 4 Mile Run/Walk in Newark, Ohio, on June 27, 2026! This 4 mile route is primarily a road course that will start and finish at DankHouse Brewing Company (161 Forry St, Newark, OH 43055). The reason I am hosting this 4 miler event is because I enjoy bringing people together. Often people are way too busy, so I want to dedicate the race to spending time with family, and making new friendships.

    This 4 Mile Run/Walk is different from other races and we are committed to providing a lot of fun for after you finish! After the race, there will be food trucks, beverages, disc golf, corn hole, and other games planned, all taking place where the race finishes at DankHouse Brewing Company! Again, I want to emphasize the fact that the race is open to everyone, I want the runners/walkers to enjoy themselves. I dedicate this event to all of you, spending time with friends and family is a special and priceless thing.

    Slow down for the day, there's no rush, just have a good time.

    Finally, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Licking County Family YMCA in Newark Ohio. A big thank you to all the participants!
