About My Challenge
I'm completing 3,307 push-ups in 24 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.
Now, for those familiar with me, you'd be aware of my general lack of effort in the health & fitness department.. In fact, I'm certain I've only ever set foot in a gym a total of 3 times in the last 10 years - once, just to show a friend the gym facilities at my apartment, and twice with my sister, on two separate family trips where she somehow managed to persuade me into joining her one morning (most likely when I began to feel like the total amount of food I had consumed on the trip up to that point began to outweigh my actual weight).
Considering the gargantuan effort this challenge is going to require of me, I would greatly appreciate any show of support, and you can do this by making a tax-deductible donation to my page. To hold me accountable, I've enlisted the aid of not only my darling sister, Elissa, but also my brand spanking new brother-in-law, Ben, so feel free to donate to our team as well/instead!
Every dollar helps #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Australia by funding much-needed mental health services and initiatives.

Lifeline WA & The Push-Up Challenge: Supporting Mental Health Across WA
Western Australia is vast, covering nearly one-third of the country, with remote communities, resource sector workers, and FIFO (Fly-In Fly-Out) employees facing unique mental health challenges.
At least one-third of FIFO workers experience high levels of burnout and psychological distress – impacting not only individuals but also their families and their community. The isolation, high-pressure environments, and extended shifts can take a toll on mental wellbeing.
Thanks to The Push-Up Challenge, funds raised will support Lifeline WA’s critical 24/7/365 crisis services – including phone, text, and chat – ensuring that no one has to face their darkest moments alone. In 2026, our goal is to be the person ready to have a conversation that helps someone feel heard, supported, and understood.
By taking part in The Push-Up Challenge, you’re helping Lifeline WA provide life-saving support across our vast state. Every push-up counts. Every conversation matters.
