My Challenge is to Do a Beep Test EVERY DAY FOR 10 DAYS IN 2024

bg my challenge

My challenge is uncomfortable for me because...

Firstly, the discomfort of a beep test is a global phenomenon - right? But for me, it's a three banger. 

1. I'm not used to pushing my body beyond its physical limits - I rest when I think I need it. I stop when I feel a little niggle. I don't show up when I don't feel well. I'm not a great runner, I learnt to enjoy running via the mindset 'if it hurts, just run slower'. Nedd shows us that we are far more capable than we think, and for many of us, our bodies are designed to recover. So suck it up and get on with it. 

2. I take my ability to MOVE for granted, there are so many people out there who can't. That includes my friend Amy, who was diagnosed with MND 2.5 years ago and is now confined to her wheelchair. A beep test sucks, but I'm sure Amy would give anything to be able to run one. 

3. I'm going to do it live on socials each day. That's bloody uncomfortable. 

I'm stepping up to this challenge to not only grow personally but also to raise awareness and support for We Are Mobilise, helping those experiencing homelessness. Additionally, I would also like to use this opportunity to raise further awareness and funds for my friend Amy, to support her through her diagnosis and her family's new life living with MND.
