About the Steps Towards Healing 5K and Wellness Festival
This race is organized by a local counseling practice and is built around mental health awareness. The route is a 5K run or walk, and the tone of the morning leans toward participation over pace. After finishing, runners and walkers move into a Wellness Village where local health providers and community organizations set up, and there is a dedicated activity area for kids.
The post-race gathering is the real draw here. Local mental health and wellness organizations are on hand, making it an easy place to ask questions or just browse resources. The Kid Zone runs alongside everything else, so families can spread out without feeling rushed.
