About the race
Operation Obstacle 2025, The Race to End Veteran Suicide, takes place at Richland Community College’s Fitness Center in College Park, Decatur, Illinois. This timed, 2-mile obstacle course features roughly 15–20 obstacles on a mostly flat course, including carrying and pulling tasks, army net crawls, and climbing over, under, or through barriers. A Fire Truck hose-down awaits finishers, who also receive a finishers coin and a goodie bag.
Proceeds benefit Richland Community College’s Student Veteran Resource Center. A non-competitive Fun Run is available. The event observes International Day of Peace and aims to raise awareness of veteran suicide.
T-shirts are available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
