Sunday 8 October is the time for the annual Run for Mental Health charity race. The 5 km race, with a joint start, has its start and finish area in the fantastic Stadsparken in Lund. You run or walk according to your own conditions. For those who want to complete a shorter alternative, you can run only one lap around the course, and this will then be an English mile, about 1,6 km.
Since 2016, the association Run for Mental Health in Lund with supporting organizations has been arranging and carrying out this charity run with programs from the white stage in Lund's city park. In connection with this race, we want to draw attention to the importance of wellness and mental health. By participating in the race, you also participate in a fundraising project for the benefit of research into treatment and forms of support for those who suffer from severe mental illness.
This is both a race and a festive event with programs from the stage. The program starts at 12.00 with music, exciting speakers, interviews and a final warm-up at 12:45 p.m. Kick-off is at 13:00 p.m. Award ceremony takes place at 13:40 p.m.
Participating in the festivities surrounding the race is free. Starting place in the race costs SEK 250.
