Unfortunately today there aren't many people out there who haven't felt the pain of one of our friends or family suffering from depression and committing suicide. So with 29 days to go and no training behind me I've decided to sign up for the York 10 Miler.  I've never ran further than 6 mile before and while that will be a challenge it's nothing compared to the challenge we face to raise awareness and remove the stigma surrounding Men's Mental Health. I'm using my own personal challenge as an opportunity to raise funds for the charity, CALM - Campaign Against Living Miserably.

CALM offer support to men in the UK, of any age, who are down or in crisis, challenge a culture that prevents men seeking help when they need it, push for changes in policy and practice so that suicide is better prevented and support those bereaved by suicide.

Please donate anything you can, no amount is too small and all donations and support are greatly  appreciated.
