I'm fundraising for...

This April, I’m taking on the MATES Big Lap 2025—running, walking, swimming, and cycling my way through the challenge all April. It’s not just about pushing myself physically, but about taking a stand for suicide prevention in our industry.

Every step, every lap, and every drop of sweat is about raising awareness and making sure no one struggles in silence. Every dollar raised helps MATES continue their life-saving work, supporting workers and their families across all worksites and industries.

I’ll be sharing updates throughout the month—every bit of support counts. Let’s run, walk, swim, and ride together for a stronger, safer industry.

100km a month... sounds easy.

Friday 25th Apr
100km a month doesn't seem alot, if you break it down it is only 3km a day. I could once do 100km in under 22 hours. I now suffer with nerve pain and severe arthritis in the lower back which transitions into the legs. So most walks i do are usually under some form of discomfort. My mind says, you've got this but my body usually gives me the reality check. I do these challenges to try and keep actively moving first and foremost, I then do it for my own mental state and wellbeing. I often get down on being a train wreck, being over weight, not being able to move freely and pain free. However in saying that, I know there are people out there still far worse of than me and some who chose not to go on. These people need our help, because 9 people a day don't see any alternatives. Sometimes just having someone there to genuinely listen and be supportive is enough to change that person's course of action. The world needs a little more kindness, a little more understanding and a little more giving. if you have read this, than thank you for taking the time. Cheers Michael
