Fright Noise Hokum Skarum
Wednesday, August 5
Join us for Fright Noise Hokum Skarum, an evening of running with purpose as we raise awareness and support for suicide prevention and mental health. Every step taken helps remind someone that they are not alone and that hope is always within reach.
The event takes place along the scenic Erie-Lackawanna Trail in Griffith, Indiana, featuring a flat, predominantly grass course with just a few short crossings of the paved trail. The course offers an excellent early-season cross-country experience for athletes while remaining welcoming to runners and walkers of all abilities.
Race Schedule
5:00 PM – 1K for Middle School athletes and younger
5:30 PM – 2K Middle School Time Trial
6:00 PM – 3K High School Time Trial
6:30 PM – Open Mile for anyone interested in participating
Whether you're a student-athlete preparing for the upcoming cross-country season, a recreational runner, or simply someone who wants to support an important cause, there is an event for you.
All proceeds from Fright Noise Hokum Skarum benefit Silent Noise, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting mental health awareness, suicide prevention, education, and community outreach. Your participation helps support programs that encourage conversation, reduce stigma, and remind people that they matter.
Together, we can make a difference—one step, one conversation, and one life at a time.
Run with purpose. Run with hope. Run for those who need to know they are never alone.

Learn more about the host city, Griffith.
Griffith is a city in the southwestern Riverina region of New South Wales. Griffith is a city of immigration and irrigation. Developed by Italian immigrants after the Second World War, watered by the Murrumbidgee and the Snowy Mountains Scheme, Griffith is an agricultural centre for fruits, wines, and rice. Due to irrigation, the areas are more intensively farmed than much of New South Wales, with many small farms close to the town. Immigrants from other parts of the world have settled here, and there are now large Indian and Pacific Islander communities.
