Every day, 105 Americans take their own lives, according to the Centers for Disease Control.

And while spending a beautiful summer morning enjoying a 5k run (or walk) with friends, family and others who "get" the pain of mental illness and/or the loss of a loved one may not make everything all right, it sure can't hurt.
