Lace up, pedal hard, or start your engines for the Run, Ride, & Rumble for PTSD Awareness 2026, a truly unique multi-sport event taking place on Saturday, June 13, 2026, in vibrant Birmingham, Alabama. Organized by Sojourn Counseling, this fifth annual event is dedicated to raising vital funds and awareness for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder during PTSD Awareness Month. Participants can choose their challenge: a spirited 5K run, a demanding 45-mile road cycling ride, or a thrilling 1.5-hour motorcycle Rumble. The day promises a powerful blend of fitness and community spirit, all culminating in a festive celebration.

The 5K run kicks off from Cahaba Brewing Co., traversing a route through historic Avondale. For cyclists, the 45-mile road ride also begins at Cahaba Brewing Co., offering a challenging journey, though participants are responsible for navigating their own routes as the course is not marked. Motorcycle enthusiasts will gather at Riders Harley Davidson for the start of their 1.5-hour Rumble. Typical race day conditions in mid-June for Birmingham include highs around 90°F and lows around 69°F, with a 16% chance of precipitation, so prepare accordingly for warm weather.

Beyond the challenge of the courses, the Run, Ride, & Rumble stands out for its vibrant post-event celebration held at Cahaba Brewing Co. All participants receive a finisher's coin and are invited to enjoy a delicious catered lunch from Chuy's Mexican Restaurant, live music from Shur Shot DJs, and a chance to win door prizes. This event offers a compelling way to support a crucial cause, as proceeds aid Sojourn Counseling's mission to provide accessible mental health care for trauma recovery. Join fellow runners, riders, and rumblers for an unforgettable experience that combines athletic endeavor with meaningful purpose.
