Race Information
The Annual Running for a Fuller Life 2.2 Mile Run is dedicated to the 22 Veterans who commit suicide each day. On March 22, 2019, SFC John Matthew Fuller took his own life. He brought energy, light, hope, and positivity to everyone he met. The Fuller Life Foundation was started to honor and continue his legacy of "good vibes" while striving to reduce the occurrence of suicide for veterans.
The Foundation's mission for military veterans is to provide funding for counseling services and assistance in dealing with PTSD and other symptoms associated with living the military lifestyle. Due to numerous barriers with the current healthcare system in the US, there can often be a delay in referral and scheduling for mental health services. It can take up to 3 months or more to establish, and cost can always be an issue depending on insurance providers, finances, or lack of insurance coverage. The foundation has the opportunity to remove some of these barriers and provide hope for living a fuller life.
