day twenty nine - B2B 2020
After my post from day 20 - oxymoron about the upcoming City 2 City ‘fun’run, I think it’s clearly established - I have somewhat of an aversion to the concept of ‘fun-runs’, and in spite of that, the idiot in me is going to push through and do some anyway, particularly when the cause is aligned with this project.
So when I came across B2B 2020 (Beechworth to Bridge), it seemed immediately inevitable that I would do my best to take part. It’s a 75km, three day walk at the end of March from Beechworth to Everton, Everton to Myrtleford, and finally Myrtleford to Bright.
To understand a little more of what Beechworth to Bridge is about, here’s an excerpt from their website.
Our Mission:
Remove the stigma of suicide, improve the process of healing & promote the concept that depression is treatable and suicide is preventable.
The concept is simple; I want to walk and talk - get the conversations flowing, and let the elephant out of the room - set that bastard free -…
…We want others to realise it’s okay to talk freely about suicide, so we can, in some small way, contribute to removing the stigma whilst building awareness, encouraging prevention, and contributing to the healing of other survivors.
It’s a brilliant initiative and I’m really excited to be taking part.
Now I just have to heal after the surgery, get back to training, sort out logistics, find accommodation, transport, plan meals etc etc etc… AAARRGGGHHH!
Time to start chewing!
