Top of Tamarack
On the last Saturday in September, participants bike, run, or hike up the mountain at Tamarack Resort. Join us for this mental health awareness and suicide prevention event where you can prove you’re “mentally strong”, all for a good cause!
This is an event unlike any other! Participants bike, run, or hike up the mountain to the distance of their choosing (max distance is just under 15 miles roundtrip). The real competition is against one’s own self, where you make a goal and set out to achieve it!
Each mile post along your journey will be marked with a special token, reminding you that you have achieved a great distance and you are “mentally strong.” Collect as many tokens as you can and then head back down the mountain to celebrate your achievement.
Top of Tamarack is a race that celebrates those who are battling mental health challenges on their way to mental health recovery and who are still here with us today. It is a race that brings together athletes of all levels and gives them a purpose for moving forward. It is also a race that honors those who have lost their lives to suicide and mental health struggles.
