Hi everyone - I’m Sam and i’m currently fundraising for Two Pints Deep and their goal to support as many men in finding the confidence to open up and discuss male mental health by completing the Manchester Marathon and going “26.2 Miles Deep”

As men, we often find it hard to open up and discuss our thoughts and feelings, which in turn leads to larger problems - and that’s where the concept of “Two Pints” comes from - a safe space where we may let our guard down and openly discuss how we feel, our problems and our concerns.

Supporting Two Pints Deep has been something I’ve wanted to do since its conception, and running the Manchester Marathon has given me the perfect opportunity to do so!

If you could support both myself and Two Pints Deep over the coming weeks then I would be eternally grateful and it’ll push me ever closer to my personal goal of at least a sub 3:30 debut!
