The 10.15 Project is a fundraising relay run created to honor pregnancy and infant loss across North Dakota. Over four days, a team of runners will cover more than 400 miles, carrying personal stories of love, loss, and resilience. The focus is on presence and remembrance rather than pace, and each mile stands for a story. The mission is to build a compassionate, visible movement grounded in endurance, remembrance, and community, while supporting families and the organizations that accompany them through grief. Recognizing that one in four pregnancies ends in loss and that many families experience infant loss each year, the project strives to ensure those navigating grief are met with acknowledgment, connection, and community. There are several ways to take part. Run a mile, tell a story, offer support, volunteer, or encourage the runners. Every show of support helps honor lives remembered and brings hope to families who are grieving. Details about becoming a featured runner will be shared soon.

Guests can enjoy catering by Badlands Restaurant & Bar.
