Help me create a mentally healthier world

I'm standing up to join Team Black Dog to turn ground breaking research into life saving action.

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, families, workplaces and communities.

As some of you know I’ve forced myself to become a very average runner over the last year and half and having a swimming background has probably hindered this process!
I wanted to take this opportunity to build some hype for my next challenge.
The 4x4x48 challenge was created by David Goggins and everyone around the world does it at the same time annually.
So the weekend of 5 March at 2pm (coincide when they commence in USA) I will be running 4 miles every 4 hours for 48 hours. That’s about 6.5km.
David’s famous catch phrase is ‘Stay Hard’ so I will also be finishing with a 13th run so for those good at maths I will be running just shy of 85kms!

Wish me luck!
