Endurance sport has the power to transform lives. Through goal setting, small daily victories, and long-term transformation, running can inspire hope and confidence—catalysts for lasting life change.

A runner’s high can feel like an addiction—but instead of a fleeting escape, it becomes a journey of self-discovery, resilience, and renewal.

HealStrike empowers individuals battling addiction, struggling with mental health challenges or just feeling “stuck” to set goals, pursue meaningful outcomes, and find redemption through movement and endurance.

Join the team. Transform your life.

We are building a community of people seeking to realize their potential. With the support of our volunteer Coach Mentors, our athletes will set and achieve goals, push past perceived barriers and transform their lives - all through endurance running. 

We host three group runs each week and have distances and paces for all fitness levels. No experience necessary. Each run is followed by a free meal at The Foundation (1304 Griffin Ave). 

Weekly Runs:

Tuesday  - 8:00pm

Thursday - 4:30pm
