Please join us at our 6th Annual 'Don’t Lose Hope: 5k Run/Walk for Suicide Awareness'!
In 2025, early national data show that the United States continues to lose nearly 50,000 people to suicide each year. Behind every number is a person, a family, and a community forever changed- a reminder of how deeply important connection, support, and accessible mental health care truly are.
Every year, 1 in 5 U.S. adults experiences a mental health condition. Most of us have either lost someone to suicide or know someone who has been touched by it. Now more than ever, we need honest conversations, genuine check‑ins, and a commitment to kindness. Suicide is not a sign of weakness — it’s a sign that someone is carrying more pain than they can manage alone. Let’s be the reason someone feels seen, heard, and supported. Join us in breaking the stigma around mental health by showing your support on Sunday, September 27th.
Run with a p u r p o s e.
Run for a loved one who you've lost to suicide, run for a friend you know is struggling, or run for your own personal mental health battle.
Whatever your reason, you're making a d i f f e r e n c e.
Whether you run, jog, or walk; your presence is what is appreciated most!
Registration will begin at 7:30 am and the official race start time will be 8:30 am. Upon your arrival on race day, please be sure to check in as well as get your honor beads (see below for honor beads description).
PS. If you didn't get to register in time, we will be accepting same-day registrations!
Race Route:
Race for the Refuge
The Highland City Striders welcome you to explore the trails at the Assabet River National Wildlife Refuge in Sudbury, MA! The Race for the Refuge begins at the ARNWR Visitor’s Center and traverses the beautiful trails around the Refuge. The course will lead runners into this idyllic nature refuge, past ponds, through pine and oak forests, and alongside mysterious military bunkers.
Course Description
The double track trails are hard-packed earth and gravel. It’s a great course for beginner trail runners. For the advanced trail runner, it could be an opportunity for a new PR!
Events
The lineup features a 10K (1 loop) and 30K (3 loops) races, and a 6-hour timed event.
For the timed courses, runners may do as many loops as desired. A loop must be completed by 3pm to be counted towards final mileage. Ranking of runners is determined by the runner who completes the most loops in the shortest period of time. Runners in the 6-hour race must start their last lap by 2pm.
The top male, female, and nonbinary runner from each of the events (10k, 30k, 3-hour, and 6-hour) will receive a prize. The largest team will also be celebrated, so please encourage friends and fellow club members to join you!
Race Day Rules
Dogs are not permitted on Refuge lands, so please leave your pooch at home. This event is family-friendly but children must be supervised.
Tread lightly through the refuge and please leave no trace! This will be a cupless race to eliminate waste on the course. Any fuel, such as gel packets, should be carried in and packed out. Due to the delicate ecosystem any littering is grounds for immediate disqualification. All runners must stay on the marked course.
Thanks for keeping our wild spaces wild!
Aid Stations and Course Marking
There will be two aid stations with typical trail race fare including water, hydration, hydration mix, pretzels, orange slices, banana halves, Swedish fish, coke, and ginger ale. The main aid station will be at the Start/Finish line. A second aid station at Taylor Road is about halfway through the loop. Note this is a cupless race.
All runners will receive swab with registration and prizes will be awarded to top winners in each category.
The course will be well marked for the runners with two course marshals at key turns.
Pacers
Pacers are allowed to assist runners in the 6-hour race only. They may start at noon or later and must complete an online or paper registration form. Upon arrival at the race, the pacer will check in at the race director table and receive a pacer bib. One pacer at a time per runner and no muling is allowed. Pacers can use the aid stations at no cost and there is no registration fee to pace a runner.
Cancelation and Refunds
There are no deferrals and no refunds. Your entry fee will be considered a charitable donation and used for nature education and trail improvements. Thank you for your support.
We are looking forward to seeing you at the race, but if you are unable to join us, please cancel using RunSignUp or contact the race directors via email so that we can give someone from the waitlist the opportunity to run. Thank you!
About the Refuge
Centuries ago, these lands were hunted and fished by Nipmuc Tribes. Later, they were farmed by colonists, intersected by a railroad, and used for military training. You will run past military bunkers that were in use when the area was known as the Sudbury Training Annex, which was part of Fort Devens. The US Army transferred the land to the US Fish and Wildlife Service in 2000, establishing the Refuge.
Since then, the Refuge has become home to freshwater wetlands, oak and pine forest, and shrubland that support many types of wildlife, including wading birds, songbirds, raptors, beaver, bobcat, white-tailed deer, and various reptiles and amphibians.
Proceeds from this race will help fund improvements to three refuge sites in MA and a volunteer coordinator who will assist visitors to the refuge with nature education and programming.

Tackle The Stigma was created to raise both funds and awareness for mental health support services. Every step taken helps break down barriers, encourage open conversations, and ensure individuals struggling with mental health challenges can access the support they need without fear or stigma.
Whether you choose to walk, run, or simply cheer from the sidelines, your presence makes a difference. Together, we can show our community that mental health matters and that no one has to face their struggles alone.

Join us for the Walk On 5K — Run, Walk, Roll, a timed 5K in Exeter, NH, bringing our community together to support families affected by Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD). Proceeds will benefit the Bailey girls, in partnership with the Dion Foundation for Children with Rare Disease. Our race will start and finish at Exeter High School!
In the summer of 2025, sisters Kennedy (9) and Berkeley (6) Bailey were diagnosed with LGMD type 2C, a rare and progressive neuromuscular disease. From the moment they received this diagnosis, their family has faced it with strength and determination—committed to pursuing treatment options and supporting the advancement of research.
Through their partnership with the Dion Foundation, this event helps raise awareness and critical funding—not only for Kennedy and Berkeley, but for all families navigating LGMD.
This day is about more than fundraising. It’s about showing up—with energy, encouragement, and community—so these girls feel supported every step of the way.
