This series of running races raises funds for The 401 Foundation which provides grants to community projects and individuals in building confidence and self esteem along with tackling mental health and so overcome bullying.
I really want to support them but the costs involved in competing in a 5k and a half marathon on one day and a 10k and a 6.1k the following morning (race fees, accommodation, travel, etc) are beyond me. Moaned on Facebook and many people want to help so, although I am reluctant to accept as, on the face of it, it seemed selfish as I would be having heaps of fun that others have paid for, helping any cause that reduces the impact of mental health is worth the effort! So please help get me there! Event takes place on 24 and 25 August, the weekend after my first Half Marathon!
