About the event

On April 10, 2027, runners will gather for the fifth edition of Run For Phil, a heartfelt tribute to Phil Slater that aims to raise awareness about mental health issues and promote suicide prevention. The race route winds through scenic downtown streets, offering participants a chance to reflect while moving forward at their own pace. Organizers have created an inclusive atmosphere where every stride contributes to breaking down the stigma surrounding mental illness. Alongside the 5K course, there are opportunities for community engagement with local health organizations and support groups present throughout the event area. Run For Phil is more than just a race; it's a powerful statement of solidarity and hope.
Participants will experience not only the physical challenge but also an emotional journey that celebrates life and resilience. The day culminates in a post-race celebration, where runners can share their stories with fellow participants and supporters alike. Join this meaningful event to honor Phil Slater’s legacy while advocating for mental health awareness across your community.
