Running for I AM HOPE

Hey guys! My goal is to run 100km around the Hastings Sports Park 400m track on Saturday the 30th of November.

I have always wanted to help people in any way I can think of. Being able to encourage others to speak up and enjoy life has always been a big part of what I do and how I interact with people.

Creating an awareness and getting the word out that youth struggle with mental health just as much as adults. And that it is hard to express these feelings to one another. Through the help of I Am Hope, we can all have a say, and all help encourage the young ones about speaking up if help is needed, and that its okay to struggle, but not okay to struggle alone.

I have had the privilege to be a part of the Pūkare Initiative in 2024. Pūkare is a brand that tries to encourage others to speak up about mental health with others. Similar to I Am Hope, we did multiple presentations in front of various intermediate schools all around Hawkes Bay. The main moto for Pūkare was that "It's okay to struggle, but not okay to struggle alone"
