RxRun Documentary!

This past month I had the opportunity to watch RxRun before it was released to the public- it's a documentary that follows the stories of Emily, Tom, and Mackenzie as they take back their lives from mental illness through a running program created by clinician Dan McGann.

This doc is a MUST-SEE. These are real people struggling with real-life things. It's humanizing. I found myself tearing up at multiple points throughout the video because they are so open and honest with where they are at and what they are experiencing but are also willing to fight to make a change + to keep moving forward.

The main focus of the doc is to highlight the positive relationship between running and mental health.

The documentary is now released digitally through iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play and was also accepted to the Running Film Festival in Buenos Aires, Argentina (this screening will take place in November).

Trailer is below!

Get your sneakers! we're going for a run with Emily, Tom and the group, as they confront depression and anxiety head on. When mental health disorders among youth become serious, parents, teachers, and caregivers typically intervene to keep their loved ones safe from harm, but when traditional treatments fail it can seem like the end of the road. Rx Run is the story of Emily, Tom, and Mackenzie as they take back their lives from mental illness through a running program created by therapist Dan McGann. www.facebook.com/RxRunDoc/
