Walking for the Health of it

Walking for the Health of it

May 21, 2022 - evant starts at 9 am

Our 2nd 5K for Mental Health Awareness will be at Williams Park, Brownsburg, Indiana on Saturday May 21, 2022. This event will consist of a 5K (3.1 mile) race or walk and a 1 mile dedication walk (for those that wish to support mental health awareness but are not runners).


The purpose of this event is to raise awareness about mental health and to reduce the stigma associated with mental health diagnosis. We also wish to encourage healthy coping skills (exercising) that are scientifically proven to increase mental health functioning and reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. #stopthestigma

 Zero to 5K 

New to running? DOWNLOAD our ZERO to 5K program - Many newcomers to running become discouraged by the difficulty associated with the activity because they start too fast and push too hard. Their bodies rebel and they wind up miserable, wondering why anyone would possibly want to run in the first place. The Zero to 5K program has been specifically designed to instill a love of running and ends with participating in your first timed 5K. 

We’re here to help you achieve your goal(s), be it your first 5K, improving your run, or simply offering a resource where you can run with a group that is designed to help each other stay motivated. You should ease into your 5K training plan gradually. In fact, the program we provide is less of a running regimen than a walking and jogging program. The idea is to transform you from a non-runner, getting you to begin running a 5K ( or 3.1 miles) and on a regular basis in just 4 weeks.  

It’s easy to get impatient, and you may feel tempted to skip ahead in the program, but hold yourself back. Don’t try to do more, even if you feel you can. If, on the other hand, you find the program too strenuous, just stretch it out. Don’t feel pressured to continue faster than you’re able. Repeat weeks if needed and move ahead only when you feel you’re ready.
