In late April/early May my brother proposed the idea of joining him on the Vitality British London 10k Run as his running buddy. Sure enough, I accepted.  We will be running in aid of the charity MIND, (for the boroughs of Tower Hamlets and Newham).

MIND’s objective is to not give up until everyone experiencing a mental health problem gets the support and help they need.

*Loneliness can be crippling and it can place one’s day to day tasks in jeopardy.

*Loneliness can be caused by a whole host of things: from the attitudes of others to the crippling self-doubt that one holds within.

*Feeling lonely can be more to do with a detachment from those who are around you. 

* A mental illness can create that detachment.

*It can prove problematic to open up about what’s going on inside your head and at first it may appear easier to shy away from the truth, than to face it head on. MIND is there to help you.

(Inspired by information I read on the MIND website © Tremayne Miller).

 Date of Run: 10 July, 2016.

Please sponsor a worthy cause,

With every good wish Elizabeth (‘Tremayne’) and Yannick x
