It's been a crazy year but it's really got me into running, which has not only improved my mental health but really encouraged me to look at my overall physical health too. 

Men generally don't tend to talk about their health much and it's really important we take care of ourselves, not just for us, but also to be in a better position to help support our families, loved ones and friends. 

Although the organised 'March for Men' event for Bournemouth Hospital Charity is a 10km run, I have decided to 'go that extra mile' and complete a half marathon distance run instead to help raise awareness and funds for Men's Health Projects.
