The 5th Annual Ringer Run to benefit suicide prevention and mental health awareness is back on track for 2021.  COVID ... enough said.

We're not outta the woods yet and too many people have been affected on a psychological level by this crisis.  But we are strong, and enduring, so we are proudly holding the race in person and virtually on Thursday August 5th at 7:00 pm.  Of course we plan on a cool after party (still planning.)

And the virtual run is still an option for those of you on that much needed vacation you couldn't take in the last 18 months!!!  What’s a Virtual Run? Support the cause whenever, wherever (your favorite trail, road, strand, woods, or around your yard 150 times). Just register, download and print your custom race bib, then run it, ride it, row it, walk it, stride it, stroll it - doesn't matter how you get there.  We've had people paddle board for 3.1 miles and that counts in our book!  Then we’ll send you some cool swag as a thank you.  We're going for as many states and countries as possible this year so tell a friend.

I know it will be hard to beat the SWAG from previous years, but we'll do our best to properly commemorate the 5 year anniversary.

As 100% of our proceeds are donated, we have already donated over $40,000 to local mental health awareness and suicide prevention programs as well as the Joseph J. Ringhoffer Memorial Fund, which was created in memory of a local fallen friend, and  supports the Penn State Student Affairs Counseling & Psychological Services (CAPS).  Click here for more information.

A huge thank you to our sponsors who cover expenses so 100% of your registration gets donated to our beneficiaries.  Check out the great work and strong support of our beneficiaries and sponsors at www.ringerrun.com.  

As always, thank you for your support and we look forward to running with you whether in person or virtual
