Wayne Cho’s awareness run for anxiety and depression reaches Vancouver Island
Wayne Cho began a run across Canada last May 23, 2008 in St. John’s, Newfoundland. The purpose of his run is “to raise awareness for anxiety and depression, which affect a significant portion of the population but are often misunderstood and neglected.”
Wayne Cho himself has been affected by an anxiety disorder since childhood but his condition went undiagnosed until age 31. He took up long distance running which helps to significantly reduce his anxiety symptoms. This Thursday, June 11, Wayne reaches Victoria, B.C.
We speak with Wayne Cho by phone an hour or so after he reaches his destination in Victoria. Also, next Thursday June 18, Wayne will join us in the studio to share his story.
