About My Challenge
Hi everyone! Matt Simon Legendary push-uperer exctroadinaire is completing 3,307 push-ups in 24 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.
This is my, legendary, seventh year of push-uppering,or put into push-up terms, to date, that's 19,145 push-ups. That's a lot push-ups for an old man. I'm exhausted just thinking about it.
To support my legendary effort, any donations and encouragement (positive or negative - but shame on you if its negative) is greatly appreciated.
That's it for now. Gotta get back to training.
All the best and many thanks!
Matt
