Out of the Darkness - 50MILER is an attempt to bring more awareness to the stigma of suicide that has affected so many lives.

We are partnering up with Bigger Than the Trail. An organization dedicated to mental health awareness, community support, and access to counseling for everyone.

We will start at 12am midnight, the morning of the 25th of September, running through the night and out of the darkness. FIFTY MILES on US Route 60 in West Virginia from the Charleston Capitol Building to The Memorial Fountain on Marshall University campus. We aim to represent those who are no longer with us, we want to honor those who carry their memories, and we want to fight with those who are fighting the good fight every day.

We hope to give others courage to know that through the darkness there is light that shines on every human being. We want to help people understand that, even when you think and feel alone; there is someone waiting to hear from you. Someone is waiting and needing to hear your story.

Don’t give up. Your story matters.
