I still can’t believe I did it! I cycled 1,147 miles over 14 days while stopping along the way to talk in schools and hospitals. But why did I feel the need to cycle for mental health education?
I developed anorexia when I was 13 years old, becoming the master of deception. I was fantastic at it.
I hid everything from everyone. It became like this dirty secret and something that I longed for. I got so much value out of it, and this sense of constant achievement.
