Story
Having turned 50 in October 2021, I wanted to mark the occasion with a special run, so decided to run all four Centurion 50 mile races in 2022:
South Downs Way 50 - 9 April 2022 DONE 10:37
North Downs Way 50 - 21 May 2022 DONE 12:04
Chiltern Wonderland 50 - 17 September 2022 DONE 12:20
Wendover Woods 50 - 12 November 2022 DONE 14:37
Given I've set myself a running challenge, it seems appropriate that I try to support a charity helping others deal with their own, very different challenges - particularly after the pandemic.
Mind Over Mountains are a mental health charity offering immediate and accessible support through the healing power of nature, mindfulness and unpressured time to talk with professionals.
Ranging from one day hill-walks to weekend retreats, their events run throughout the UK, with bursaries available to those with the most challenging lives.
I heard about Mind Over Mountains at the Run Show South and wanted to do something to help those who could benefit from time in nature, coupled with professional support - a powerful way to build resilience, talk without pressure and re-find stillness.
Every little helps and donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
Thanks in advance.
