Run With Me is a 5km walk/run that promotes a change in the way people perceive those diagnosed with mental illness.
The event will occur on September 30th at 9:30 am at MacDonald Park and will include speakers who have struggled with mental illness and/or have had a loved one who struggled with mental illness.
The event will also focus on the correlation between exercise and its positive effects on the emotional state of an individual.
We hope to encourage the Queen's and the Kingston community to help to improve the future surrounding mental illness. Everyone has been affected by mental illness in countless ways. We personally, can no longer stand by and allow fear and embarrassment determine the course of loved ones’ lives; it is for this reason that we are looking to start a new tradition amongst the countless others here at Queen’s University.
