Hello Wonderful People,
The BMO Vancouver Marathon on May 4 is rapidly approaching and once again I will be attempting to propel myself around the gorgeous 42.2 kilometer course for no good reason at all. Well, there would be no good reason if I wasn't doing it for my own mental health and to help raise money for the Canadian Mental Health Association.
The CMHA's mission is to ensure that all people in Canada experience good mental health and well-being by creating a Canada where mental health is a universal human right.
In any given year, approximately 1 in 5 Canadians experience a mental illness, and by the time they reach 40, about half of Canadians will have or have had a mental illness. I am included in this half of Canadians and when depression became part of my reality it re-enforced to me the importance of accessible and affordable mental health care for all. The CMHA helps provide exactly this.
So please help make this meaningless running stuff meaningful by giving generously to this incredibly worthy cause.
Thank you!
