Story

Hello everyone.

Since the start of 2021  I decided to run for my own Mental Health and I found it to be really helpful.

Mental health affects us all, and never before has it been as evident as during these trying times. Please remember, it really is okay not to be okay. There is help out there for you. It starts with “Hello.”

I ran more than 2,500km since the start of the year and I challenge myself to run 36k per week for as long as possible and also have a 2 minutes cold shower after every run during 2021 for SAMH , the Scottish Association for Mental Health.I will also do fun runs in various costumes every other weekend.

Not many people know that a few years back I was the victim of a major car accident and my right leg 🦵 was broken in 3 parts so for me personally to run every km represents a real challenge.

I am very excited & extremely happy to share with everyone my recent interview in the Evening Express newspaper.

This is the full story behind my 36k/week run all throughout 2021 for Scottish Association for Mental Health.
