Find Mike - World Mental Health day

Attended a great session today with Jonny Banjamin and Neil Laybourn; 1 in 4 suffer mental health issues in the U.K, staggering. I knew the Uk was bad but really?

Incredible story of a guy on a Monday morning (Neil) stopping to talk a suicider away from jumping off of Waterloo Bridge (Jonny).

After recovery and 6 years later Jonny started a national campaign which trended globally to find Mike (he could not remember Neil's name).  Now they travel the world together giving talks on mental health issues and trying to destigmatize the disease.

Rode in and home, some strength and 5k jog at lunch.  I really like these sessions at work.
