In July, I lost one of my closest friends to liver cancer.

Every year, he set himself a 30-day fitness challenge to raise money for charity. It was his way of giving back and pushing himself for something bigger than him. Before he passed, he asked me to take up the Mantle this year — to carry on the challenge for him.

So that’s what I’m doing.

Starting October 14th, I’ll take on his exact challenge, finishing on November 12th — the day he would have turned 19.

100 push-ups

100 sit-ups

50 pull-ups

5KM run

Every single day for 30 days.

I’m doing this in his memory, and to raise money for Cancer Research UK. They couldn’t save him, but there are so many others still fighting — and even a small donation could help someone else get another chance.

There’s no fundraising target — just a hope that whatever we raise can make a difference.

And if anyone else feels like taking on the challenge alongside me — in full or in part — you're more than welcome to join.

Thank you so much to everyone who donates, shares, or supports this in any way. It really does mean the world.
