Bigger Than The Trail
Bigger Than The Trail is an organization that is using trail running as a platform to advocate for mental health.
We come alongside individuals, providing educational support and treatment options. Please don't think our mission is limited to just people who run. This is much bigger than that. Running is not the focus; but rather the people we can impact. Our focus is to bring light to the real struggles and challenges that are associated with mental health.
