My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Mental health and suicide prevention

Globally, the rate of suicide is alarmingly high, particularly in men. Too many men are ‘toughing it out’, keeping their feelings to themselves and struggling in silence. The Movember Foundation is aiming to reduce the rate of male suicide by 25% by 2030, and I want to help them get there. Help me stop men dying too young.
Last year I moved away from the mullet and ran a marathon a week for the month. This year I'm going to try and improve on that and run 200km in the month. Whilst that was looking like just under 7km a day, a nasty bout of gastro on the eve of Movember has left the task slightly harder and I'm not going to start running until the 5th at the earliest!

This year has been another very challenging one, and emphasised again the importance of continuing to focus on my own health and that of my family.
So whilst this is my most challenging target yet, I'm determined to knock this bugger off as well!

Hey Iain, thought I’d drop by to say a big hairy thanks for flying the flag for men’s health (again) this year. 13 years of dedication to Movember and backing men's health. Just know you are doing a whole lot of good for men!

You’re smashing your fundraising all in the name of a bloody important cause – to help men live happier, healthier and longer lives. Movember isn't over yet and you have already hit your KMs target! And check out that haircut and colour. Damn, that’s good-looking my friend.

There’s still plenty of fun to be had this Hairy Season so keep it up legend.

United we Mo - Anika from Mo HQ.

Thanks so much to everyone for your donations so far...the Mo stays with me now for the whole of December. Scarily, we're now over halfway there to it staying for the whole year!
