60 Marathons in 60 Days - Mental Health Fundraiser

Mitch Grey has decided to run 60 marathons in 60 days whilst working as a Graduate Engineer at Multiplex.

Yes.. you heard that right. He will be waking up at 5am, heading to work and then topping the day off with a full marathon for 60 days straight.

There will be rough nights, sore legs and significant tests to his relationships. With that in mind this is all happening for a very specific reason...

Having suffered from his own personal struggles as a young man, running became a positive pathway for Mitch to reflect, connect and channel his inner pain. Through this journey of determination and reflection, Mitch has found a purpose giving back to other who may have been struggling like himself.

Mitch has nominated to raise funds for Perth based youth mental health charity 20Talk. 20Talk is a youth mental health charity that helps young adults (18-30) integrate mental health tools and skills into their lives. They are all about being relatable and actually connecting to young people in a language and format they understand. Real talk, hard conversations and evidence based education.
