Phil's Marathon for Mind

My Story

For some unknown reason, I've always wanted to do a marathon. After doing a couple of official (and some not so official) half marathons I've decided to use turning 40 as a kicker to sign up for the full shabang.

I'm under no illusion that it's gonna be a slog and despite running several half's, at the moment the idea of doing that TWICE back to back is knocking me sick. But I'm determined to get there!

I'm going to be raising money for the incredible charity Mind. 

Mind, the mental health charity in England and Wales, provides information and support for people with mental health problems, fights for mental health policy changes, and raises public awareness to end stigma. It offers a variety of support, including helplines, local services, and online communities, and provides resources to help people understand mental health conditions and access the right help.
