“The world is so noisy that unless we do something that is going to shake the world, the world is just not going to hear it.”

On May 29th, 2021, Josh will attempt to become the first person to run a marathon in all 4 countries in the UK in just 24 hours. There will be no rest, no sleep and most of all, no room for error.

Continuing on his journey to redefine how mental health is perceived in society, Josh is prepared to push himself beyond his limits, again, to prove not only to himself but to others that whilst mental health may be seen as a weakness, your mind is stronger than you know.

Running in all 4 countries of the United Kingdom is a momentus element of this challenge. Josh understands that to truly raise awareness requires exposure and what better way to speak to as many people as possible than to cross borders and go beyond Great Britain.

“We can choose to be affected by the world or we can choose to affect the world. I want this challenge to be a reminder that you are not alone. Every day I run, I run for you!”

Josh believes that we are stronger together, as a collective of people that support each other. That is how we make change. The team below are just that – an incredible group of individuals that have come together to support Josh on this challenge and contribute to the change in narrative around mental health.

Watch over us today, Today we run another day, Today we run for Britain, We run for our friends, We run for our family’s, And most importantly we run for ourselves, Inspire, Be inspired, We are one, Let’s run!!!
