As you get older and you have more conversations with people, you realise just how many have suffered with cycles of negative thoughts, that have made them anxious and made life difficult. Life IS difficult and the busier we get, the more precariously balanced our mental states seems to be. MIND provide advice and support to empower anyone experiencing a mental health problem. They campaign to improve services, raise awareness and promote understanding.

A team of pals and I ran Endure 24 last summer for this brilliant charity, in recognition of the sterling work they do, and to the issues that each of us has, and manage to tame (most of the time) through regular trips out in our trainers!

Miles for Mind is a runr_uk initiative to get people out there fundraising, and doing some positive for their own mental health, because #MentalHealthMatters
