BIGGBY COFFEE B the One Walk/Run

About the Event

Join Us for the 5th Annual B the One Walk/Run
Sunday, October 5, 2025 | Grand Rapids, MI

In recognition of World Mental Health Day (October 10), the 5th Annual B the One Walk/Run invites our community to come together in support of mental health awareness and suicide prevention. This meaningful event is more than just a race—it’s a movement to inspire hope and encourage others to “B THE ONE” for someone who may be struggling.

Proceeds will benefit iUnderstand Love Heals, a local nonprofit that provides compassionate support to individuals and families affected by suicide and mental health challenges.

Whether you're a seasoned runner or a casual walker, this event is for everyone—families, kids, strollers, and dogs included! Participants will receive a race bib, t-shirt, participation medal, and a goodie bag filled with fun and thoughtful items.

Be the one who walks for hope!
