Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I signed up to run Chester half marathon for my own gain. I was running it to prove to myself that I could do it.
That was until I got the news that someone who I remember as one of the brightest, most enthusiastic, funny and caring people I had the pleasure of calling me friend and peer through university, lost her battle with depression.
I want to use this opportunity to raise a little money and awareness of a cause that I think is closer to the heart of more people than we realise.
If by doing this, I can help just one person reach out for help, to break passed the stigma surrounding mental health and get the support they need, then my busted knees, knackered shins, chaffed nipples and blistered toes will be all worth it!
I am running in the name of Zara Jane Hermon. A friend who will be missed by many the world over.
