Michael fought addiction for a number of years and in many ways we also learned the struggle and anguish of addiction every step of the way.

Hello all,

Due to circumstances beyond our control, we will be hosting a VIRTUAL EVENT only this year. The LIVE Michael Sena’s Run For Hope event on October 22, 2023 will be cancelled.

We are excited that the 7th annual Run for Hope 5k will be completely virtual this year so we can still raise awareness and end the stigma of substance use disorder. We need you now more than ever! Overdoses in 2022 reached a new high, with federal data showing nearly 110,000 drug deaths.

If you’ve been involved in past years, you know the virtual run is a week-long event, starting Sunday, October 22 until Sunday October 29, 2023, where more people can get involved at their own pace. More information on this to follow!

We are so grateful to keep our mission alive, spreading awareness about drug addiction and eliminating the stigma! We hope to return to an in person event next October. Don’t forget to sign up! T-shirts are first come first serve this year!

If you have already signed up, we will be reaching out soon so keep an eye out for an email from us in the coming days.

Thank you all for your support and we can't wait to see your virtual run pictures this October!
