Event Description

Overcomers: Walk a Mile in My Shoes 5K 
In Honor of Overdose Awareness Month

Overcomers on the Move is proud to present the Walk a Mile in My Shoes 5K Run / Walk at the beautiful Battelle Darby Creek Park on Saturday, August 23rd @ 9am.

We hope you will spend your Saturday morning with us at the scenic Battelle Darby Creek Park.  There will be lots of fun and sponsors most importantly knowing that every step you take is a stand against overdose.  Every mile walked raises awareness, honors lives lost and supports those still fighting.  Peer support empowers individuals to choose their own path to recovery because no one should walk it alone.

Runners and walkers will have their choice of a 5K (3.1 miles) or a 1 Mile Walk.  All proceeds from this event will benefit Overcomers on the Move, a Recovery Community Organization located on the west side (Hilltop) of Columbus.  Overcomers offer a Peer Led Recovery House, Peer Support and a Peer Internship Program.  Each line of programing benefits those in early stages of recovery striving to achieve long term wellness and independence.
