Description
May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and we invite you to join us for our Miles for Mental Health Virtual Challenge. Choose your journey—run or walk a 5K, or take on our 30-mile challenge and complete it throughout the month of May.
This free virtual event is about more than just miles. It’s a reminder that movement is medicine—for the body and for the mind. We run for clarity, for healing, for connection, and to help break the stigma that still surrounds mental health in our communities.
Whether you're running solo or alongside your local Latinos Run or Latinas Run crew, every step you take helps raise awareness and create space for open, honest conversations around mental well-being.
This event is open to all paces and all places. Walk it. Run it. Break it up over time or knock it out in one go. However you move, you’re making a difference.
WHO WE ARE
LATINOS RUN promotes running as a way to improve the physical and mental health of the Latino community. As a minority-based organization, their goal is to highlight a community that is largely ignored when it comes to their health while inspiring more individuals of color to change the way the fitness industry looks. They celebrate diversity and aim to empower runners to “Get Inspired By The Journey”.

WHAT IS A VIRTUAL RUN?
A virtual run is a run that can be run or walked from any location you desire. Run, jog, or walk on the road, trail, treadmill, gym or even a track (or even at another race). You run your own race, at your own pace, and time it yourself.
