Join the marathon journeys of the 2023 Rise Up Runners

Buxton and Mind are on a mission to promote better physical and mental wellbeing across the nation, through exercise and hydration.

Eva, Lesley and Sha have all faced mental health challenges in recent years, and each have their own reasons to be tackling the marathon on behalf of Mind. These are their stories.
