It’s time for Superior Connections Recovery Community Organization’s (SCRCO) 3rd Annual “Nick’s Run for Recovery”, to be held in downtown Marquette. This run is held to bring awareness to the growing issue of substance use and mental health in our area and is held in honor of the late Nicholas Suardini, who lost his life to these crises.

​

Funds from this fun run/walk will be used to support Superior Connections mission of cultivating a culture of long-term recovery by creating connections and reducing barriers for those affected by substance use by supporting our Recovery Residence program. We currently have two homes (Marquette & Ishpeming) that house four men each and add programming to function at NARR (National Alliance of Recovery Residence, Inc.) Level 3 standards.

 

This year’s run will be held on Saturday, May 17, 2025 and will follow the same 5k route as last year. We give a sincere thanks to all of our sponsors, but especially La Dolce Video & Design and Elizabeth's Chop House for all they work they have done to make this event possible! Pre-race check-in will be held at Elizabeth’s Chop House on Front St at 9:00am; participants will receive local resource information, a race number, & Nick’s run merch (including a T-shirt). Participants will then make their way to the clock tower for a word from Nick’s sister, Sarah Suardini, before our event begins. The event will follow the bike path along Lake Superior to just past Picnic Rocks Park before returning to the clock tower to finish.
