Tali McPike hasn't added a story.
I've had Depression and Anxiety most of my adult life. At one point it was so bad that I could barely function. I barely took care of myself, I couldn't hold down a job, and at my darkest moments I didn't even really want to live.
All that changed when I took up running in 2014.
Running changed my life.
I've never been a very athletic person, and to begin with it was tough to be motivated enough to get out for a run. But I knew it would benefit me in the long term. And it has. My motivation, self confidence, and outlook on life has improved drastically since I started running.
So now I want to do something to raise awareness for the disorders that I battle every day, to show people like me that there is hope and that it can get better.
I've chosen to undertake a challenge I'm calling #RunAllTheRaces2016. Simply put, I'm going to run every race of every runDisney Race Weekend, for a total of 22 races (ranging from 5k up to Marathon distance) and approximately 200 miles.
I've chosen the runDisney series because Disney has been one of those few things in my life that even in the darkest of times has made me feel happy, and runDisney is part of what inspired me to take up running in the first place.
The funds donated to this campaign will help cover the costs associated with this challenge, specifically registration fees. I am also donating a portion of all the funds to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America. As I meet and exceed my funding goals I will be increasing the ammount donated to the ADAA.
For more information and to follow my journey as I train for and run this challenge, visit runningheartless.wordpress.com

Thank you for your support!
