Sweating for Stan

Hey guys and gals, as some of you may or may not be aware my best friend recently had a severe stroke at the young age of only 21! 

This past week has been extremely hard on his family and close friends. Stanley is currently at the Royal Prince Alfred hospital in Sydney undergoing scans and tests to try and find the underlying cause of his stroke.

His family have dropped everything to make their way to Sydney to be able to support him through this time and they’ll be there for him through his road to recovery — like myself and his other close friends.

Stanley has a great deal of social support around him at this current time which is awesome, but unfortunately it’s taken and will continue to take a financial toll on himself and his family due the inevitable ongoing costs of transportation and eventually rehab among other things.

For every $2 I can raise I will complete a burpee, i.e; $10 donated = 5 burpees. I’m going to give myself a 60 minute time cap and for every rep that I don’t complete I will match it with my own money meaning that if I have 50 burpees left to go when the time runs out I will donate $100 to this cause.

This couldn’t have happened to a more kind and caring person and it’s completely devastating to everyone but I’m willing to put myself in the pain cave for a bit to help a brother as it’s nothing compared to what he’s going through.

I understand that times are tough right now financially for some people but if you can find a few spare dollars to donate it’ll go a long way.

I’ll be completing the burpees from all the money raised on the 1st of June so hopefully we can get a bit of money in and everyone can watch me suffer for a good cause.
