SUMMARY:Kennedy Kids Foundation 3rd Annual 5K Run / Walk!
DESCRIPTION:Hosted at Barry University in Miami Shores, the very neighborhood where our dear Kennedy Bailey grew up! Our  5K RUN OR WALK is open to all families, age groups and abilities.  All results and standings will be monitored with real-time chip tracking technology from our amazing partner Split Second Timing & Wildside. This race was the brainchild of Sienna Alvarez-Coia who is a childhood friend of Kennedy’s and wanted to create this race in her honor.  Tragically, Kennedy struggled with depression due to a mental health crisis and lost her life on Thursday, September 15, 2022.  In her honor, our Kennedy Kids Foundation is dedicated to crowdfunding, fundraising and the development of programs and initiatives for the prevention of youth suicide. We are focused on mental health and education, heightened help-seeking behavior and equitable access to care. Our goal is to end this tragic epidemic and save lives.  Will you run with us in support of mental health awareness and suicide prevention among teens? Can’t make it on the 15th, then sign up for our Virtual Race Option, all are welcome.\n \nWHAT TO EXPECT RACE DAY:\n \nPACKET PICK UP:\nRunners packets will be available for pickup from 6:00am-7:15am on race day!
