I DID IT! Honestly, what a surreal experience that was! The whole occasion was just something I’ll never forget. Cheered on by strangers, to making children’s day with a high 5!

So glad that I opted to run without headphones, the atmosphere all the way round was fantastic.

Felt like I was lacking weeks before training wise, kind of just made it up as I went along, so there was a bit of doubt how far or fast I could go. All I wanted to do was finish the race. I had my own little goal which was to complete it in under 4 hours. Thankfully I finished with a time of 3:59 😬.

Went through every emotion on the way round, physically, mentally and then emotionally at the finish line. Proud to say that I’ve joined the 1% marathon club. Don’t think I’ll be in a rush to run another 🫣. The last 6 miles was a huge mental battle, probably the hardest thing I’ve had to do. The relief crossing the finish line was something else!! by @keerunn_

I set myself a little running challenge at the start of July to run 100 miles during the month. The sole purpose was to raise some awareness for children’s and young adults mental health and for the charity @youngmindsuk who do a great job with supporting people who have mental health issues.

The reason I created this account was to hopefully inspire others to get out running. It really is the best medicine when you’re feeling down.

If you come across this, spread the word and know that people aren’t alone, and there is help out there for everyone ❤️

July 100 mile running challenge raising awareness for @youngmindsuk.

6 days left of July, 31 miles still left to complete.
Felt like one of my worst runs for a while, but turned out to be one of my best of this year. Strange how the mind works sometimes. At times I felt like I was struggling, but managed to push through.

One thing I’ve found through running over probably the past 18 months, is how your mental resilience can carry you over the line. Some days you’re not quite at it, which is a normal thing. We’re all human, some days are better than others.

Peeled myself off the sofa on Saturday afternoon and puffed and panted my way to another 8 miles.

Among 17 to 25-year-olds, rates of probable mental disorders are twice as high for young women compared to young men.

July 100 mile running challenge raising awareness for @youngmindsuk.
1 run wasn’t enough today so managed to squeeze in another this evening 🤭.

Following on from today’s community run, it’s so great to see so many people coming together doing something they enjoy. And from a mental health perspective, it’s not about smashing PB’s every time you lace up your running shoes. Getting out in the fresh air and socialising is all you really need 😊❤️

The number of children and young people referred to emergency mental healthcare rose by 10% between 2023 and 2024, with many of these young people being stuck on waiting lists for NHS support for months and years.

What a great Sunday morning 5k with @jointherun25 & @redrun_activewear. A fantastic community event, seeing everyone come together. It doesn’t matter about age or ability, showing up with the support of your friends is all you need. Well done to everyone who took part, but a big well done to the @jointherun25 team on a successful day 👏.

July 100 mile running challenge raising awareness for @youngmindsuk.

15 more days to get in 46 miles. Today was a nice and easy zone 2 run. Not my cup of tea in all honesty but definitely needed every now and again. 8 miles completed today, and some nice views along the way 😎.

Almost one third (32.8%) of 17-24 year olds have self-harmed or attempted to self-harm at some point. This rises significantly to 69.5% of young people with a probable mental health condition.

Let’s get help to those who need it most. Don’t be afraid to ask for support. There is always someone to help as well as listen. ❤️💛

July 100 mile running challenge raising awareness for @youngmindsuk

What started with just an early morning easy 6 miles turned into 13. Considering I didn’t want to get out the door, it’s crazy how running can just switch your mind on in an instant!

One third of mental health problems in adulthood are directly connected to an adverse childhood experience (ACE).

Whether you’re running 1 mile or 13, the instant satisfaction you get after completing it is well worth it. 💚❤️

I’m 37 in October, and I genuinely feel fitter than I ever have.

Running has transformed more than my fitness. It’s improved my mental health, built discipline, given me confidence, and reminded me that progress doesn’t have an age limit.

If you’re thinking it’s too late to start, it isn’t.

Your future self will thank you for taking that first step.

Age is just a number. What matters is what you do with the years ahead.

July 100 mile running challenge raising awareness for @youngmindsuk

Probably my toughest run today in sweltering conditions. Thought it would be a good idea to get out and do a few miles, but I was regretting it the last mile 🥵.
Nevertheless more miles completed.

With the summer holidays approaching, spare a thought for children who may not get to connect with their friends for over 6 weeks which can have a massive effect on their mental health.

Long waiting times for support have negative consequences: 59% of young people report their mental health getting worse during the wait for support.

If you or someone you know is struggling, youngminds UK have all resources to help you 💚❤️.

Spread the word 🫶🏻
