The Lights for Life 5K is tied to a mental health and suicide prevention mission run by a local nonprofit. The course is in Murrieta, and the event draws people who want to move their feet for something that matters to them personally. The pace of the field tends to reflect that: people are here for the cause as much as the race itself.
