Justin's Run 4 Awareness

By Justin Farrell

help me support the mental health of young people

I will be running a total of 150KM in 5 months to raise funds for Headspace. I am passionate about running and also supporting the mental health of young Australians.

Each year, one in four young people experience a mental health issue, and 75 per cent of mental health disorders emerge before a person turns 25. Sadly, suicide is still the leading cause of death for young people in Australia.

Headspace provides mental health services to young people 12 to 25 online, by phone and through headspace centres in metro and regional areas across Australia.

Please help me make a difference in the lives of young Australians by donating today. Always reach out for support and help.

nightly run & kangaroo jumpscare

Sunday 21st Jul
So the other night I was running along my usual 5km route nothing too special, other than it was a late night run around 8:00pm. I was running along and approached a kangaroo appearing to be asleep but at the time I didn't see him so it gave me a HUGE fright to see a kangaroo slumped next to the road I was running on and as he got up (from sleeping) I almost gave myself a heart attack because I thought he was chasing me, thumping after me, very scary. I have realised now he probably would have been more scared of me then I was of him, so kangaroo's don't attack humans good news!
