Firstly James, what an amazing achievement completing this adventure. But more importantly thank you for talking so openly about your depression and also the depression in men. This means so much to me

[@alisonslack6330]

Thankyou James what a wonderful journey, I am deeply grateful that you shared your mental health issues and the importance of seeking professional help. I lost my daughter to suicide and have used my running as a therapy to heal. I acknowledge the importance of accepting problems I have used my running as a distraction but real healing comes from within and succumbing to the underlying causes.

What an inspiring journey, physically and mentally! I am impressed with openness and explanation of daily struggle. It takes courage to even admit to yourself there is a problem and ask for help. I’ve been there myself and understand the difficulty. Congratulations!
