THE CHALLENGE
Ross, Kyle and Gav signed up to complete the inagural Spoke to a Bloke "Challenge for a Bloke". Couldn't be prouder of the boys who put thier hearts and bodies on the line to complete this gruelling treck.
Ross and Kyle experienced the devastation of suicide first hand having lost 2 brothers Ryan and John.
WHAT WAS THE CHALLENGE
Leaving at 3am from Dee Why Headlands, the lads took off on the 125km trek all the way to Newcastle.
The walk hugged the coast line the majority of the way with 80km completed Day 1 and 45 Day 2.
They had some amazing supporters join them for sections of the course and the amount raised was incredible.
Relive the adventure and hopefully this inspires you to create your very own "Challenge for a Bloke".
Details about how to do this can be found on the Spoke to a Bloke website.
Feel free to share this amazing Challenge on your socials to inspire others.
We are a charity focussed on supporting blokes mental health. We do this through running a series of community based events, including Walk for a Bloke, Challenge for a Bloke and Headband for a Bloke.
Funds raised via these events are being used to fund two core Spoke to a Bloke Projects;
M.I.N.D.S – The MEN IN NEED OF DIGITAL SUPPORT project is an initiative to bring together a wide range of mental health experts, knowledgeable individuals and everyday blokes to create 24/7 help content aimed at supporting adult and younger men.
121 – The 121 project will deliver direct professional help for blokes that need financial assistance and reach those that need it most.
In addition to our projects, our events also serve as medicine. We enable blokes to be active, to connect, to share, to listen, to learn and to share in events to help build resilience through action.
