My Story

I’m Tom, I’m 35 and I was inspired to run for BDDF as my partner was recently diagnosed with BDD. I’d never heard of it or understood it until now and the stats of 1 in 50 people suffering with this floored me. I’m running to help raise awareness and show people there really is some help out there and they’re not alone.

My training is going well, I’m already running 10k on weekends at home to prepare for the race.

I’m most looking forward to the atmosphere on the day, hearing other people’s stories and their journeys and to just be included to play a little part in something that could be life changing for people suffering with BDD.
