About the William's Run
William's Run is a memorial race honoring a young Army veteran and sheriff's deputy who died by suicide. The event exists to raise awareness around mental health struggles and suicide prevention, with donations going to a local nonprofit focused on those causes. It is organized by his family, and that origin gives the morning a weight and a purpose that most races do not carry.
