Maharishi International University Athletics and Student Activities are hosting a Mental Health Awareness 5K on Sunday, May 17th in recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, and the event is open to the entire community.

The 5K will begin at 9:30 a.m. in front of the MIU Argiro Student Center in Fairfield. Participants can walk or run at their own pace along the route, which features four checkpoints offering free water, snacks, live music, games, and entertainment. Hydration stations will also be available along the course, and participants are encouraged to bring their own reusable water bottle.

All participants will receive a goodie bag filled with mental health-themed items. Commemorative t-shirts will be available for purchase at the start for $5. A waiver will be available at the starting area for those who need one.

The event is open to everyone in the community. More information and the Facebook event page can be found at https://www.facebook.com/share/1CxTnQ8gES/.
