In Aparecida de Goiânia, the local government organized the 13th annual ‘Circuito Aparecida Correndo pela Vida’ charity race. The event featured 5km and 10km races, a walking event, and a youth race, with participants required to donate 2kg of non-perishable food to support vulnerable families. Aligned with the ‘Setembro Amarelo’ (Yellow September) campaign, the race promoted mental health awareness and suicide prevention.

The event concluded with a record participation of over 2,000 athletes, contributing to local food drives and supporting the campaign’s focus on self-care and social connection. This race is part of a broader trend of athletic gatherings across Brazil that utilize running to promote health awareness and community solidarity, such as the ‘Corrida Pela Vida’ in Campo Grande and various social-impact runs in São Paulo and Natal.
