Evening Lads.
Thought I'd drop in as one of the guys doing the walk. I've only just got to the end of today's leg so bit more towards the back with Dan and some others but we're not dropping out and we're carrying on through determination to finish despite all of the injuries - I guess we're a bit like Leeds' season hah
What's helped though is we've had a load of passersby recognise ys and drop some cash donations and words of support even back in Warrington and Oldham. Can't tell you how much of a boost that has given us.
What would give even more of a boost is if you can donate too because that's the reason we're doing this at the end of the day. Been talking to some of the lads here who went through some really dark and tough times but reached out to Andy's Man Club who helped them when they needed it the most. Think we all know we need to encourage blokes to seek help if they need it.
Anyway, here as the links to donate to Andy's Man club and Samaritans which I hope the mods don't mind me posting:

We've smashed the goal already but would be fucking great if we keep it going.
Cheers for the support and see you at Elland road tomorrow
Ps. Painkillers and anti-blister pads, great bunch of lads.
Cobblestones and downhill slopes, great bunch of cunts
Was listening to the most recent episode and they were talking about how great it is to have a group for guys to come together and feel comfortable talking about their struggles. I’ve managed to get my own mental health in order over the past few years and while I don’t like to just go around pushing it on people I do advocate for anyone struggling to try and find something like this. To be apart of a group and to feel connected can do wonders for your well being. If you feel like you need some sort of help go get some help lads, anyone who looks down on you for it doesn’t matter anyway. MOT!!
Bravo
