Hi, I am Robb. I am walking from Los Angeles to Jacksonville Point — 3,600 miles to shine a light on men’s mental health and remind every man he’s not alone.
Each step carries stories of courage, connection, and healing. This walk is more than a mission — it’s a movement built on brotherhood and hope.
where Robb is today and explore milestones along the way.
On July 1, 2026, I’ll take the first step of a 3,600-mile solo journey across America — from Los Angeles to Jacksonville Point — designed to break the silence around men’s mental health and suicide prevention.
Week 1: Southern California to Arizona Border
(7 days, ~277 miles)
The opening stretch moves along the Southern California coast before turning inland.
Key transitions include Huntington Beach, San Diego, Campo, and Jacumba.
This week establishes daily rhythm and prepares the body for desert conditions.
Week 5: East Texas to Louisiana
(7 days, ~282 miles)
Moving east through Columbus, Houston, and Beaumont before entering Louisiana.
Stops include Lake Charles, Lafayette, Baton Rouge, and New Orleans.
Humidity becomes the main factor.
Week 2: Arizona Heat Management Phase
(7 days, ~285 miles)
Crossing southern and central Arizona through Gila Bend, Maricopa, Scottsdale, Florence, Tucson, and Benson. This week prioritizes heat control, hydration, and pacing.
One planned rest day in Scottsdale supports recovery.
Week 6: Gulf Coast Corridor
(7 days, ~260 miles)
From New Orleans along the Gulf Coast through Mississippi and Alabama.
Key locations include Slidell, Bay St. Louis, Gulfport, Biloxi, Pascagoula, and Mobile.
Shorter days manage cumulative fatigue.
Week 3: New Mexico to West Texas
(7 days, ~277 miles)
From the New Mexico border through Lordsburg, Deming, and Las Cruces, then into Texas via El Paso.
The route continues through Van Horn, Fort Stockton, and Ozona.
Open terrain and longer mileage dominate this week.
Week 7: Florida Panhandle
(7 days, ~263 miles)
Entering Florida through Pensacola and moving east along the Panhandle.
Major points include Fort Walton Beach, Panama City, Apalachicola, Tallahassee, and Perry.
Terrain flattens but humidity stays high.
Week 4: Central Texas Mental Grind

Monotony and distance define the challenge.
Week 8: North Florida Final Push
(11 days total including buffers, ~200 miles riding)
From Perry through Lake City, Macclenny, St. Augustine, and into Jacksonville.
This week includes buffer days, media days, and contingency flexibility.

See the people and places behind the miles — from city meet-ups to small-town conversations. Every face
tells a story of connection and care.
At major rest points and key cities, Robb meets local communities for walks, conversations, and shared stories along the route.
Each town becomes an opportunity to connect with local mental health organizations, creating lasting partnerships and awareness. The journey follows a low-altitude strategy to ensure safety while maintaining an average of 37.6 miles per day.
This isn’t just about physical endurance — it’s about proving that the longest journey isn’t across a continent, but the distance between who you were and who you’re meant to become.
