Race Description
The "Don't Struggle In Silence 5k" race is set to take place on April 12, 2025, in Norfolk, Virginia. Organized by Emily Sheetz, a second-year medical student, this event aims to raise awareness for mental health and suicide prevention, inspired by her personal experiences following the loss of her sister to suicide in 2012.
Participants will run along the scenic Elizabeth River Trail, with all proceeds benefiting a local mental health organization. Finishers will receive medals, and registrants by March 30, 2025, are guaranteed a T-shirt. An after-party at Benchtop Brewing Company will provide complimentary beer and food from local vendors, fostering community support for a meaningful cause.
