London Landmarks Half Marathon for Mental Health UK

I'm taking on the London Landmarks Half Marathon for Mental Health UK!

I want to make a difference to people affected by mental health problems. Every donation, no matter how big or small, brings us one step closer to a world where mental health is treated with the same importance as physical health. Let's turn awareness into action and create a brighter future for all.

Mental Health UK is dedicated to providing essential support and resources to individuals and families affected by mental health challenges. With a focus on collaboration, innovation, and inclusivity, they are at the forefront of driving positive change within the mental health landscape.

Friday 20th Feb
I am running the London Landmarks Half Marathon in April to raise money for Mental Health UK. I plan to run 200miles including the training and the day itself. My goal is to achieve a time of under 2 hours (as far under 2 hours as I can manage) for the race.

I live in a beautiful part of England with my amazing family, where I can run out in the countryside to train, and I quite frequently train with friends. I find this so cathartic and positive for me as a person and I am very lucky to have that privilege. I want to raise as much money as possible for those that suffer with their Mental Health and need access to Mental Health UK's support and services.

My grandfather was the first Professor For Mental Health in Belfast so I would like to raise money for this worthy cause in his name, and in memory of my Father, Keith Russell who always supported me through the tough times in my life!

I would be so grateful for any donation you can give, no matter how small, and promise that I will put in the maximum effort I can to honour your kindness!

Thank you to my Sponsors
