In Coordination with the U.S. Department of Veteran’s Affairs Suicide Prevention Team, Richland Community College presents the 2nd Annual Operation Obstacle – The Race to End Veteran Suicide.

Each day, 17 of our nation’s Veterans die by suicide. Join us for a timed, 2-mile obstacle course race to raise awareness of Veteran suicide. The course is mostly flat and will have between 15-20 obstacles. A few of the obstacles involve carrying & pulling objects a short distance, army net crawls, and climbing over, under, and through obstacles. There will also be a Fire Truck hose down at the finish line. All participants get a finishers challenge coin and goodie bag. Proceeds will support Richland Community College’s Student Veteran’s Resource Center. The race check-in, start, and finish will be in the Richland Fitness Center parking lot located at the north entrance of the Workforce Development Institute near the RCC Green House.
