Mind

Run the Royal Parks Foundation Half Marathon for Mind

You will be making a difference by raising funds and awareness for the 1 in 4 of us who experience mental distress every year in the UK.  Running outdoors in a green environment has been proven to boost mood, reduce stress, anxiety and negative emotions, and improve overall mental wellbeing.

Feel the benefits of this beautiful run, show your support and join Mind’s team today!

“I was admitted into psychiatric care where I discovered running. I found it balanced my moods – my bipolar swings. If it wasn’t for running and the support I received, I doubt I would be here today.”  Laura, Mind running team 2010
