160kms in 6 weeks

My story and why

Thursday 10th Apr In March of 2020 I lost someone very dear to me to suicide. It was sudden and all-consuming. An overwhelming feeling of loss and heartbreak lingered over me for years, going through a constant loop of what ifs and what could have been. I still carry deep hurt to this day, but nothing compares to the pain he felt. The mental battles he faced for years leading up to taking his life are unimaginable and nobody deserves to feel the way he did, that leaving this world was the only option or saving grace.
Through my own struggles after this, I found Black Dog Institute. They connected me with services that helped me cope with this loss and channel my energy into other avenues. 
This year we faced the 5 year anniversary of losing Kyle, and it hit me all over again. Time has gone so quickly and I want to honour him and give back to a cause I believe in so deeply.
