Strides for Adam 5K

Join us on Sunday, March 29th, 2026 for the 7th annual Strides for Adam 5k run, walk and 1 mile reflection walk. We are also offering a virtual event for those that are unable to participate in-person. Suicide is the SECOND leading cause of death for ages 10-24. More teenagers and young adults die from suicide than from cancer, heart disease, AIDS, birth defects, stroke, pneumonia, influenza, and chronic lung disease, COMBINED. On Dec 26, 2018 this unfortunate statistic affected Adam Holten, his family, extended family, friends and the community. We lost a very good person to suicide. Adam affected many people’s lives with his presence, his smile, his laughter, his handshakes and his ability to reach out and lift other people up. Since his passing we have created a non profit organization: Strides for Adam . This is our 7th year hosting a 5K race to continue his legacy of service to others and keep his memory alive. Pricing: Early registration is $30 for those over age 18 , through March 15th, price goes up to $35 through March 28th. $40 on Race Day (online registration only - no paper registrations). Early registration is $25 for those ages 18 and under , through March 15th, price goes up to $30 through March 28th. $35 on Race Day (online registration only - no paper registrations) Groups of 3 or more who register at the same time get $5 off of each registration Race Swag! Finisher medals and t-shirts for participants. This years medal is in the shape of a honeycomb, with the race colors of black and yellow. The reason for the race colors, the honeycomb, the 16 bees running with the picture of Adam in the sunlight… it all has significance. Adam was 16 when he left us and he was fascinated by bees. We like the symbol of bees because they symbolize a community working together. This race, this event is not just any race, it is done to honor someone that served others. With your support and the support of sponsors and volunteers, we support high school graduates movin
