Target: $1,000

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

Too many men are ‘toughing it out’, keeping their feelings to themselves and struggling in silence. You may not think you've been touched by this, but chances are you're in regular contact with someone who is going through a tough time, but they keep it hidden.

Movember is aiming to reduce the rate of male suicide by 25% by 2030, and I want to help them get there and I'll do it by going with the "Move this Movember" option. I'll be walking 222 kilometres over the month to help raise awareness for the 60 men we lose to suicide each hour, every hour across the world.

If you can help with a donation to get to my $1,000 target, that would be greatly appreciated. If you can also help with ice and ice bins to help my glass knees get through the next 4 weeks, that would also be appreciated.

Ok, so after my first week was shelved due to a bout of laryngitis (or some kind of itis) I've finally logged my first KMs doing just under 12 during a round of golf this morning.

I'll be sticking to my goal of 150km, but will have 7 days less to achieve it... game awwwn

To help me push through and reach my target, any donation big or small would be greatly appreciated
