My Story…
I've been privileged to have access to mental health support through professionals and close friends. Not everyone has that access which is why I'm running for the Canadian Mental Health Association.
This will be my first half-marathon. It's been a journey since I started running a year ago when anything above 5km was a new milestone. Running has helped me push beyond what I thought I was capable of, whether that be pouring rain, snow-covered sidewalks and my own personal demons.
Description
One of our goals is to support youth mental health early, to give them tools to support their life and most importantly, let them know they aren’t alone in their fight. Whether this was your story as a teen or now, or you saw a family member struggle with mental health and weren’t sure what to do, running for CMHA-VF is a commitment to making the Vancouver Fraser community better.
You are pounding the pavement anyway, and doing it as a mental health ally with a great song pushing you forward will have more impact than you can imagine. You can be the match that lights a child up and lets them know they have a lot of fight left in them.
