5 for 49 · 27 November 2016

The Mental Health Foundation believe no-one living in the UK should be deprived of the opportunity for good mental health because ​of who they are, the community they come from or where they live​. We’re developing better ways to support good mental health in every community.

Story

10th October 2016 was Mental Health Awareness day.    

On 27th November 2016, it will be 5 years since the former Wales manager, Gary Speed passed away after committing suicide. He was 42 and seemingly had everything to
live for.

As I am based in a camp in Iraq for October, home for November and flying back to Iraq on the 5th
Anniversary of Gary Speeds death, I have decided to set a small challenge over
the 49 between 10th October to 27th November.

Inspired by British Triathlon's @BritTri , support of #WorldMentalHealthDay I intend to run a total of 245KM, averaging 5KM per day to raise awareness of mental health issues.
