No Symptoms. No Warning. One Test Changed Everything. Jump To Events Awareness Education Support Community Advocacy More No Symptoms. No Warning. One Test Changed Everything. Richmond Hill was 44 years old and feeling fine. No symptoms. No warning signs. He almost skipped his routine checkup, but a PSA test changed the trajectory of his life. Today, Richmond is three years cancer-free, and he's turning that experience into action."I share my story not to center myself, but to spark lifesaving conversations," Richmond says. "At the barbershop, in the church, on the sidelines of our kids' games, those are the places where we need to be talking about this."Richmond is especially passionate about reaching Black and Brown men, who are disproportionately impacted by prostate cancer. Black men are 1.7x more likely to be diagnosed and more than 2x as likely to die from it. For Richmond, that statistic isn't abstract — it's personal."Too often, we don't talk about our health — out of fear, pride, or simply lack of information. But silence can be deadly."That conviction is what drives Richmond to lead Hill's Heroes each year at the ZERO Prostate Cancer Run/Walk. In 2024, Hill's Heroes earned the title of Rookie Team of the Year — a testament to the passion and energy Richmond brings to everything he does."The energy, the passion, the people — it's electric," he says. "This event brings together survivors, families, caregivers, and advocates all working toward the same goal: ZERO. I'm honored to be a part of it and to help drive change in the communities that need it most."The ZERO Prostate Cancer Run/Walk is more than a race; it's a movement. People from all walks of life come together to support an organization that is changing the landscape for prostate cancer patients, survivors, and their families. And there's always room for more.Come join the fun.Richmond's story is a reminder that early detection saves lives, and that one conversation, one checkup, one test can make all the difference.
