22 Miles for 22 Lives

An average of 22 veterans commit suicide every day. Our goal is to promote education on this problem and to work to reduce or eliminate it.

22 FOR 22 will have no official timing and no awards - Fee for the 22 MILES and the 22 KILOMETERS is $22.00 - Paid registrants will receive a 22 for 22 t-shirt.

22 Miles - A combination trail and paved road hike/walk/run (Caution - Many of the miles are on a rugged wilderness trail and will have trip hazards, ankle-twisting terrain, and water hazards.)

22 Mile Relay - Same course as the 22 Miles - 4 person relay. Course is divided into 4 segments of approximately 5 to 6 miles each.

22 Kilometers - All paved road hike/walk/run (this distance is a little longer than a half marathon. The course is three loops of the state park road and has hills.)

22 Kilometer Relay - Same course as 22 Kilometers - Each participant will do a 4.5 mile loop on the paved road.

2.2 MILES - This is a great short walking course on the road. This event is free and is offered to promote education on the problem of veteran suicides.
