The Tristesse Grief Center will have their 5th annual Hike for Healing at Turkey Mountain on Saturday, March 5th.

It is now open to everyone in the community.” “Hike for Healing is exactly what it sounds like: a chance to heal,” says Amanda Shank, Co-Chair of Hike for Healing 2016. “The hike is all about remembering those we have lost, and creating happy memories while honoring our loved ones. That message is universal and touches everyone, whether you’re an experienced runner or not.” “Hike for Healing is unique in Tulsa because it is a trail run,” says Caldwell. “It’s held at Turkey Mountain, which is a beautiful piece of natural Oklahoma. There’s something therapeutic about running through those trails.” Trail running has become a phenomenon in its own right, and hike participants will be able to run or walk the blue trail through beautiful Turkey Mountain. The red trail is being used as the Memorial Mile track. “It is more than just a 5K because it’s about emotional healing as well as physical health,” Shank says. “This cause is close to my heart because I’ve experienced loss. I’m honored to be able to raise money that will help people in need get professional counseling.” Registration for Hike for Healing is $30 for adults (11+), $20 for Grief Center clients, and free for children. Registration includes a race bib, a t-shirt, and the after party.

St. Patrick's Day costumes are welcome and runners will receive shouts of encouragement for each block they complete. For experienced runners who want to get a work out or those who are working toward fitness goals there is a USATF certified 5K (3.1 miles) race that begins in downtown Bartlesville at 6th and Jennings. For beginners or those who just want to take it easier, there is also a one mile fun run beginning right after the 5K starts. Costumes are more than welcome during the fun run, as are walkers and anyone else who wants to participate. Taking the couch to 5K concept literally, there will also be an actual couch race with teams vying for the winning prize. Beginning right after the 5K is over, the couch race consists of teams putting wheels on couches, the lightest competitors riding the couch, and the strongest pushing them to victory. This hilarious event is always a crowd favorite.
