I AM RUNNING THE TCS LONDON MARATHON 2026 FOR MIND

On 26 April, I will run the London Marathon (26.2 miles) for Mind - a charity making sure no one faces a mental health problem alone.

Every year, 1 in 4 adults in the UK experiences a mental health problem. Behind that statistic are real people facing anxiety, depression, crisis, or overwhelming stress. Too many struggle in silence. Too many wait too long for support.

Mind is there when it matters most.

Last year alone:

• Over 600,000 people were supported by local Mind services

• 120,000+ enquiries were answered by Mind’s helplines

• Millions accessed trusted mental health information and community support

Demand is rising. The need is real. And support saves lives.

That’s why I’m running.

Training for a marathon is physically tough. But for many people, the mental battles they face are far tougher and far longer than 26.2 miles.
