I have suffered with Anxiety issues for the past 6 years and recently diagnosed with PTSD. I never thought I would ever have any mental health problems and always dealt with stress quite easily. Then after an incident at work followed by problems thrown at me in my personal home life I changed. It took me some time to come to terms with it and now I live with my Anxiety on a daily basis. I have good days and I have bad.

In 2013 I started Obstacle Racing and really got into fitness, this I found to be a great outlet and really helped me feel better. From this I formed RAW Fit and RAW Obstacle Race Team. The race team is now a nationwide team with 100 members and its great at bringing like minded people of all abilities together.

I love teaching people fitness, encouraging others and supporting them along the way.

So I have decided to support mental health charity SANE.

I aim to complete as many challenges as possible and hold various fitness challenges through RAW FIT.
