Watch Me Rise
About This Campaign
DJ Run is a FREE virtual fitness event hosted by Watch Me Rise, taking place over a week from 16 to 22 November 2025. We encourage everyone around the world to come together for mental health and to raise awareness of suicide prevention through fitness and community.
DJ Run started as an awareness campaign for the importance of mental health and suicide prevention. The event is named after co-founder Gareth Kropman’s brother, who took his own life in 2015. In 2017, two of DJ's friends chose to run for his birthday, the age he would have been on this planet. He would’ve been 28, so they thought: “Let’s go and do a 28km run”… and they did!
The event has since grown year on year, and we have partnered with amazing individuals and organisations to reach as many people as possible, wherever they are on their mental health journey.
Fundraising
This year, we are raising funds to help Taswill Welcome and the South African Depression and Anxiety Group (SADAG) convert a shipping container into a free mental health counselling clinic...
