London Landmarks Half Marathon 2023 · 2 April 2023 ·

This event is not your average half marathon! From cultural landmarks and heritage to the city's quirky and hidden secrets, runners get to explore the capital on a route like no other.

Story

As you may or may not know this will be my second attendance at the LLHM. In April 2022 was my first attempt at the LLHM and my first ever half marathon. I finished with a time of 02:07:56 and raised over £800 for Tommy's the baby charity. In 2023 I'll be looking to complete the race in under 1:55:00.

I've had my fair share of mental health problems in the past. Let's be honest, I'll still have a day now and again where I'll feel like crap or may just want to be alone. But my days aren't even a fraction as bad as what they used to be. In fact I have more goods day now then bad.

I'm not going to go into detail of my problems as it's personal, but those who know me well and have been with me on my journey would tell you how well I've done.

I'm here, I'm living, I'm healthy and I'm happy! 

I'm now able to give something back by raising money and awareness for great causes such as Mind.

MIND provides advice and support to empower anyone experiencing a mental health problem. They campaign to improve services, raise awareness and promote understanding.

They won't give up until everyone experiencing a mental health problem gets support and respect.

They are Mind

Every year, one in four of us will experience a mental health problem. But hundreds of thousands of people are still struggling.

They believe no one should have to face a mental health problem alone. They will listen, give you support and advice, and fight your corner.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thanks for reading! Tom
