I am doing the 10K run on 11th July to raise money for OCD-UK. Anyone who knows me well will know that this will be quite a challenge as I am not a runner, or an athlete of any kind, for that matter. Think of a Barbie doll who has been dismantled and then re-assembled slightly wrong and you will be close to imagining what I look like when I run!
Anyway, I am hoping to raise money for a charity which helps people with OCD, a really unpleasant mental health illness which can lead to varying degrees of incapacitation. Intrusive thoughts lead to frequent rituals, habits and obsessions which can make leading a normal, active life very difficult. As some of you may know, my eldest son has been suffering from severe OCD for several months, and has been away from school for almost a year. Money raised towards OCD-UK can help with research, awareness and support for those afflicted.
