@movember you have been painful but fun this year.
I wanted to see #movember out with one last push. The #conwyhalfmarathon twice last week felt amazing so I challenged my friends on Tuesday to sponsor me again and they came up trumps.
The first lap today was fun but the second lap was, as Clubber Lang would put it, PAIN! I was very cold, my legs were hurting, I felt vulnerable in the dark and some of those miles were long drawn out torment and suffering…absolutely perfect for putting into perspective why I was running. I’ll take physical pain EVERY day of the week if it helped lower the amount of mental health suffering that men go through, in fact not just the men but everyone!
I’m so grateful for @donnahaggas brining the cavalry with a coat, tea and toast which actually worked wonders and got my little legs running again.
Running the last mile with my son was special as I want him to understand he can make a difference in life by doing things to help others regardless of how much discomfort it may cause him.
All my followers and friends are just absolute legends. At mile 22 I did wonder if I could go on and I knew if I quit every single person would have said “No worries brother, it was a great effort “ and that kinda reasoning only spurs you on to get the job done. Super thanks to @adventures_with_a_macsensaurs for coming to cheer me on, absolutely brilliant.
To end my post, my run took 4:55 hours (I am old), in that time 295 men globally will have committed suicide. So please, speak out if your suffering, listen if someone tells you they are suffering, and once you have spoken go and see your gp or speak to a mental health charity- people suffering with mental health are not alone, there are so many others suffering too and so many people that genuinely want to help ❤️

Well I did it today, my first ultra, running from Colwyn Bay to the summit of Snowdon...a total of 60km!
It was a tough effort especially as I ran solo and had to navigate a route to stay safe.
I thoroughly enjoyed it and I hope my effort can inspire more men to talk, to take care of their health and I get a few donations.
Felt very proud running for such an amazing charity
