Step Forward for Mental Health

Join us in the heart of Thornville for a high-energy, heart-filled 3K Fun Run that’s about so much more than the finish line. Hosted at the Thornville Community Park, this event brings our community together to support mental health awareness—because no one should ever feel like they’re running alone.

Led by local City Queen of Thornville, Ariana Frick, this run is all about breaking the stigma, building connections, and reminding everyone that it’s okay to ask for help. Whether you sprint, jog, or stroll, your presence makes a difference. To give back to our community, all proceeds will be donated to All-Well Behavioral Health in Perry County. The goal is to raise $5,000 in registrations and donations. We are still seeking local sponsors to assist in sponsoring this event. Please submit a contact request if interested in becoming a sponsor! 

Registration: 8:00 AM
Opening Remarks: 8:45 AM
Race Start: 9:00 AM
Closing & Thank You: 10:15 AM

Enjoy a fun, uplifting atmosphere with music, encouragement, and a whole lot of community spirit. Bring your friends, your family, and your heart for a cause that matters.

Run for awareness. Walk for support. Show up for each other.

Let’s take steps together toward stronger mental health.

Thank you to our sponsors!
