ONLY OPEN to students, employees, and alumni of the Georgia Institute of Technology.
Get ready to lace up your running shoes for a cause that'll move your heart just as much as your feet! We're hosting a race that's not just about the thrill of the finish line; it's about supporting mental health and giving voice to those who are struggling with thoughts of suicide. Every step you take helps show support for our campus community. So come on! Let's hit the pavement and show mental health we're in it for the long run!
Join us on Friday, Sept 12th on the front lawn of the Campus Recreation Center for the Hope in Motion 5k. Start time is 7am. It's our community coming together to support those who face mental health challenges every day.
