Love & Lean Walk/Run for Mental Health
This community awareness event in Zeeland, Michigan brings together in-person and virtual participants to raise mental health awareness. The event offers multiple participation options:
- 5K Walk/Run
- 1.5 mile Walk
- Virtual walk/run with mailed participant packet
The course uses sidewalks, bike paths and trails through wetlands and will include memorial pictures, sidewalk chalk, and encouraging message signs along the route. A local combined 7th grade band will perform near the finish area. Only the 5K route is chip timed; participants should wear their bib on the front during the event.
Event long sleeve shirts are included with 5K registration and optional for the 1.5 mile walk. The shirt order deadline is April 13, 2027. Virtual participants receive a participant bib, finisher medal and event t-shirt; virtual packets will be mailed after the April 24, 2027 event.
Early packet pick-up is available the day before at a local church. Registering four or more immediate family members for the 5K earns a $5 discount per person. The event does not issue refunds and is planned to proceed rain or shine, with postponement or cancellation only for severe weather. Net proceeds will be distributed among selected mental health organizations; exact percentages are to be determined. Memorial signs along the route and community fundraising elements are part of the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
