Life;Story is Centerstone’s national walk/run for suicide prevention, bringing communities together across Illinois, Tennessee, and Florida for a day of hope, healing, and connection. Participants of all ages and abilities are welcome, from families with strollers and kids in the youth races to runners with dogs and virtual supporters joining from afar.
In Tennessee, the event takes on an additional focus: the start and finish lines sit just miles from the gates of Fort Campbell, home to the decorated 101st Airborne Division, the 5th Special Forces Group, and the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment. Here, Life;Story also serves to honor the brave service members, veterans, and military families who have carried the invisible wounds of war—reminding them they are seen, valued, and never alone.
The semicolon in Life;Story symbolizes a pause—not an ending—and reflects the belief that every person’s story has more ahead. That spirit is felt throughout race day with a welcoming, supportive atmosphere filled with community vendors, mental health and military‑specific resources, free giveaways, and crowd‑favorite perks like an event T‑shirt, finisher medal, and access to our curated Spotify playlist.
Proceeds from Life;Story in Tennessee help provide critical mental health and addiction services for individuals with limited or no resources—including dedicated support for military service members, veterans, and their families. By participating, you’re helping save lives, strengthening your community, and reminding others that their story matters—and that it’s far from over.
