Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Those of you that know me, know that I only started running on the 1st November 2016. Although I be always been into my fitness, running was never my strong point or an enjoyment! When I applied for the London Marathon I never thought I would be accepted but as your reading this you know I got through.
Why am I doing this ? The biggest reason is for my self achievement and to tick it off my bucket list. I've made changes in my life over the last few years and I'm making personal choices that better me in a more positive way, this is giving me a whole new outlook on life.
The London Marathon being my biggest goal this year to achieve. I train every day pushing my body to its limit but I never give up, which brings me to why I picked Lancashire MInds as my chosen charity.
After long thoughts of what is personal to me and those around me and my home town ..... I know that if there is support at an early age with mental health issues and the struggles and situations that we face it could make that difference that are in later life harder to deal with, there is so much stigma even around the word "mental health" that's important to give the help where it's needed.
It's the small changes, the support networks, the getting to the most vulnerable before they hit crisis point, which sadly we are all too aware of the negative outcomes if people suffer in silence.
So please every penny counts, support me in my journey to give a bit back to services that are needed.
Thankyou for all your support and encouragement.
