My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Mental health and suicide prevention

In the UK on average 13.4 men take their own lives on a daily basis. That is a stat we can’t ignore! On top of that 3 out of 4 suicides in the UK are male.

To represent this I will take on the following:
I will run 13.4km a day and 3 out of 4 days do a maximum weight lift after the run….so;
Day 1 will be a 13.4km run followed by a maximum squat
Day 2 will be a 13.4km run followed by a maximum bench press
Day 3 will be a 13.4km run followed by a maximum deadlift
And
Day 4 will be a 13.4 km run

I will repeat this for the whole month!

I have no idea how the body will respond to this. I will certainly not be hitting PB weights every day and it will be a grind. This feels like an accurate representation of life….some days are tougher than others and we have to grind! It remains the case for me.

How I'm
getting involved
409 of 402 kilometres
running
409.73 kilometres
workout
Day 1 will be a 13.4km run max squat Day 2 will be a 13.4km run max bench press Day 3 will be a 13.4km run max deadlift Day 4 will be a 13.4 km run I will rotate for the month

Twas the night before Movember, when all through the land,
Not a whisker was stirring, not one single strand.
The razors were readied by the sink with care,
In hopes that a smooth-to-be face would soon be there.
The Mo Bros and Sisters were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of Mo glory ran through their heads.

Yes folks, the hairiest month of the year begins TOMORROW!!

Hopefully all the plans for your team’s campaigns are in place, and if not – there is still time to recruit, make plans and build hype. Last year the sports challenge made a serious impact, and we’re gonna do it all again this year.

BE THE DIFFERENCE IN MOVEMBER 2024!
