The Walk

3,600 Miles of Hope, Healing & Brotherhood

About the Journey

Hi, I am Robb. I am walking from Los Angeles to Montauk 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 Montauk Point — designed to break the silence around men’s mental health and suicide prevention.

The Crisis We Face

Men account for 78.7% of all suicides in the United States,
with a suicide rate four times higher than women. Yet only 17% of American men received mental health treatment in 2023 compared to 28.5% of women. The silence is literally killing us, and this walk aims to change that conversation one mile at a time.

Beyond the Miles

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.
