Running the Great North Run has always been a dream of mine and I'm looking forward to achieving that dream in aid of Mind on the 11th September 2022.

In February 2021, I started a fitness competition with a good friend to see who could exercise the most during that month. This competition changed my life as it led not only to an improvement in my physical health but also my mental health. 

Since that competition, I have talked more openly with friends and family about mental health but there are people out there who don't/ can't, for their own reasons, share their mental health status. 

It is because of this why I have chosen to run in aid of Mind. They offer services which can be of help to those who feel they cannot talk and give them a helping hand. Their services mean no one will face mental health problems alone. 

This is going to be a massive challenge for myself however I know I'm doing it for a great cause! 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
