10,000 Burpees for mum
My wonderful mother Rosemary is fighting breast cancer and is currently undergoing 6 months of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and other treatments. Due to the global circumstances and because I live in NZ, I cannot easily get home to support her throughout this journey. Fortunately, I have an amazing family who will be there with her every step of the way and I will be video calling her at every opportunity.
To send her support and love, I am going to complete 10,000 burpees on the weekend of 07 and 08 November. For those that have done burpees will know how ambitious and awful this will be. For those that don't, a Burpee is a full body movement which was an exercise popularised in WW2 as a way to assess a soldier’s fitness.
My plan, or lack of, is simple - try do as many Burpees on Saturday 07 Nov as possible until I can’t do anymore (12 to 16 hours worth I’d imagine). Any remaining burpees will then be done on the Sunday (maybe another 12 to 16 hours). Venue is at F45 Blenheim but there will be a live stream going on Facebook with a tracker/counter. All are welcome to join in and support whether it is for a minute or an hour.
A full burpee rep must include chest to floor, jump and hands above head. All money raised will be split equally between Breast Cancer UK and Breast Cancer Foundation NZ.
