This challenge is one dedicated #suicideawareness As you may know I deal with mental health issues and suicide ideology, which is something many others struggle with too.
So, it's my hope that during my time set to raising awareness that I'm able to not only help myself as we transition into the winter months and the gloomy season, that I'm able to help others in their time of need and to be able to reflect on my own struggles and learn to ask for help regardless of how depressed I am.
Mental health is something that we all experience from time to time and for most (myself included) it's a lifelong battle. If you have been a consumer of my content for any period of time, then you'll know this about me. So, when I saw that there was a challenge that was dedicated to mental health and suicide, I knew this had to be something that I took part in.
I have already done 5.91 miles toward my 5k or 3.1 miles goal which has completely exceeded what I originally signed up for, so I think the furthest that I can go for this challenge is Half marathon which is 13.01 miles or 21.09K. At the very least I am going to push for the 10k or 6.2 miles.
