Sometimes a person goes the extra mile to raising awareness for a cause he believes in. Quite literally, Wayne Cho is one such person - he is running across Canada to raise awareness for anxiety and depression.
The fight is close to home for me. I have suffered from General Anxiety until the age of 30, when I took up long-distance running and began to have my anxiety under-control. Growing up, I always began the day with this intense worry feeling in my guts that something was going to go wrong and I worried about everything. I didn’t know that what I had was anxiety until I went back to school to study psychology. Ironically, that was a year after I began running and discovered that I could control my worries.
Wayne certainly deserves to be applauded.
