Something's got to change
I'm skiing, biking and rowing to raise money to help Team Black Dog turn mental health research into life saving action. On Dec 6th I will complete an Erg Triathlon:
Ski - 10,000m
Bike - 20,000m
Row - 10,000m
For those who aren't familiar with Erg equipment, I'm expecting this to take me 2.5 hours of pretty hard work. You might ask, why?
Mental illness affects 1 in 5 Australians every year, with the most common being depression and anxiety. Mental illness doesn’t discriminate. It affects people from all walks of life — individuals and families, in workplaces and communities.
I've had my own battles over the past 20 years with anxiety and disordered eating. While I am in a great place now, many are not.
This year I have seen people I love battling dark depressions, 2 in and out of drug and alcohol rehab, 2 sadly passed away, others dealing with eating disorders, and all during a pandemic.
I have been thinking about doing this challenge for some time but recent events have pushed me to lock it in.
Thank you to my Sponsors
