Supporting mental health in South Lakeland is important to me. As somebody who has depression and anxiety I want to raise awareness and funds for the great work done by the local Mind organisations. 

I used to run, but since my last depressive episode I have struggled to get back to running. So personally for me this is about getting back to running and being out in the Lake District. 

At the same time the incentive to help myself is to raise money for South Lakeland Mind. Specifically to support the development of their outdoor therapy practice.

So I have entered the Lakes in a Day Challenge in October 2015. 50 Miles, 4000m of ascent starting in Caldbeck in the north and finishing in Cartmel in the south. You can see more at http://www.lakesinaday.co.uk/. 

If you feel able to support me in this then that would be great.

Thanks

Colin
