Runners listen to a safety briefing prior to running the Run For a Life 5K Sept. 5 2014, at Joint Base Charleston, S.C. The Run For a Life 5K was held as part of the base’s monthly Fitness Challenge and helped to promote resiliency and raise awareness about suicide and prevention. Prior to the start of the run, Gail Meminger Rush, guest speaker, talked to the group and shared a personal story about the loss of a loved one. Rush lost her daughter to suicide in Jan. 3, 2012.
