Story

100 Tonnes...

On Saturday 22nd August, over the course of the day, I will be "lifting" 100 tonnes (roughly the weight of a Boeing 757-200 or a blue whale)  by doing:

  1. 500 repetitions of 100kg Deadlifts
  2. 500 repetitions of 50kg Bench Press
  3. 500 repetitions of 50kg Bent Over Rows

Good Cause...

I will be fundraising for in aid of Special Effect, a charity that's helping everyone with disabilities to enjoy video games for fun, inclusion and rehabilitation. 

This is a massive personal challenge, so please support the fundraising efforts, and donate to help a great charity with a great cause.

I've set out some lovely video links below about the people Special Effect help and what they do:

Tom, a young man we helped, puts into words the difference such support will be helping to make: ‘Thank you for giving me my life back.’ Sadly Tom died a while ago, but he was kept happily gaming right up to the night before he passed away. His family are now good friends of SpecialEffect. https://www.dropbox.com/s/uymuwdi6dn51h4q/Tom_HD.mp4?dl=0
