Pirate Reid’s Half Marathon

On 17th March, Michelle Reid and friends took on the Reading Half Marathon in aid of Oxfordshire Mind. 

Michelle said “I turned 40 this year and I wanted to celebrate by running in aid of [Oxfordshire] Mind. Running has had such a positive effect on my mental health so I wanted to give something back whilst also having a lot of fun dressed as pirates! The crowds at the Reading Half Marathon were brilliant and it was a joy to see everyone’s smiles and reactions as we went past in our pirate costumes. It was a very memorable day.”

We would like to say a very big thank you to Michelle who raised a fantastic £553 for Oxfordshire Mind.  We’re all very grateful for your support.
