Hello everyone,

My gym will be hosting a strongman charity day on 12th July to raise money for Prostate Cancer UK. My dad suffered from prostate cancer (and survived) and Joe's dad is currently suffering from prostate cancer (and winning) so it's close to both our hearts.

On the day, the 4-man strongman team will be doing 1000m with 220kg yoke, 1000m with 100kg farmer's walk, 100 flips of the 350kg tyre, 100 reps of 100kg atlas stone over yoke (large stone, no tacky) and 100 80kg log lifts.

There will also be other people there doing various challenges such as 1000 100kg bench presses, 1000 50kg squats (ladies) and one nutter doing 1000 chin ups.

We initially had a target of £1000. This has already been surpassed but that doesn't mean people should stop donating - it's such a great cause. If any of you are feeling generous then please make a donation. No matter how small or large, it will be truly appreciated. If you are in the London area that day and want to come and support, the address is:

Unit 15/16
Resolution Way
Deptford
London
SE8 4NT


Thanks for reading,
John

I'll try and come down. Worthy cause, definitely worth a thumbs up :-)

What is the name of your gym?

Thanks. It's called the Commando Temple. The guy who runs it is an ex-marine.

Big respect to the organisers of this. I hope the gent who's currently battling continues to do well. One side of my family has been plagued by cancer. It's a terrible thing.

Just a friendly reminder about the strongman charity day this Saturday. Thanks to all those that have donated so far, we've smashed our target hitting nearly £300k so far. If anyone wants to donate there's still time and if anyone wants to come and support on the day it kicks off at 10am and the address is as above. Cheers

I'll be working on Saturday, so unlikely I can make it. Do you have a poster so I can advertise it on a group in Facebook?

I got a bit excited when I read you've hit nearly £300k.

Oh what a mistaker to maker. Only £3k but nonetheless a decent amount. Unfortunately we're not organized enough to have a poster but that's a great idea for next year if we do it again. Cheers
