Hi family & friends!
It’s been less than a month since I got the awesome opportunity to run through the streets of Berlin and now I have decided to try something new-I'm pulling an all-nighter for Mental Health by running/walking in the Franklin All Nighter on October 26-27! The race is sponsored by University Baptist Church here in Chapel Hill, NC and is meant to raise funds for our local mental health organizations and services.
The idea of seeing how far I can push my body beyond the 26.2 miles of the marathon has intrigued me lately…and I could not think of a better way to test myself. As a mental health professional, I know the need. I know the limited resources. And I know the impact that mental health has on individuals, families, friend groups and communities-big and small. This is a small way to help, but we can do this together!
