This May, Phil Main of Classic Rock 94.5 is going to run, walk and crawl for mental health.

Phil is going to do 24 kilometres for 5 straight days, from May 6th to 10th, which is Mental Health Awareness Week, to try and help raise awareness and end the stigma surrounding mental health in Midwestern Ontario.

I sat down with Phil to talk about the event, his goals, and what inspired him to put himself out there and get involved. Listen here:
