Named for Chad Evans, who was lost to suicide on August 13, 2023 after a battle no one knew he was fighting, Chad’s Day for Change brings the running community together while raising awareness and funds for a very important cause: men’s mental health.

Chad’s Day for Change supports HeadsUpGuys, a program of UBC, an organization dedicated to changing men’s attitudes towards seeking help and to providing education and support. Thanks to our passionate athletes, volunteers, sponsors and Chad’s friends and family, we have been able to raise more than $17,000 in our first two years to support their mission.
