In the middle of August I will be talking part in Wild Horse 200 which is 200 MILE trek/run from northern terminus of the wales coast path (Chester) - Blaenau FFestiniog (Snowdonia)

I have 5 Days to complete the course and have 55hrs to do the 1st 100miles.

Why I have decided to do take on this challenge? 

Simply why not? I want to see what I can push myself too and through, I haven't been in the best of places mentally recently and I what to know there is a way out and putting myself through this and finishing, it hopefully it means I can make it through this dark place too.

If I have been having mental health issues why not support a mental health charity? 

I've been in two minds of what charity to raise money for while doing this event, It was ether Rescue Me or Mind. 

An the reason I haven't chosen Mind or a similar charity is mainly due to the fact that it hits a little too close to home and I when I hit the wall and need motivation to keep pushing forward if I start to think about those issues they aren't going to help me, they will most likely stop me. 

Why Rescue Me Animal Sanctuary? 

Again simply why not? they are a great Merseyside charity that look after all kinds of cats and dogs that need help, it's also one that I actually volunteered at many years ago.

When I do hit the wall which I know I will, thinking about the all of the animals that I will be able to help by doing this will give me the strength to keep going and as much as animals need rescuing we need rescuing too and that is what they will be doing for me.
