100 Push-Ups a Day in November

Why an old man will get elbow pain...

Hello everyone
Last year, as many of you might remember, I took up the 100 press ups each day in November challenge on behalf of Macmillan Cancer Research.  Due in no small part to the generosity of staff at Bow School we raised £651.  This year Great Ormond Street Hospital is holding the event and I am going to do it again.  I have decided that I will complete 150 each day just to add a bit more jeopardy and bring on arthritis a bit earlier...
Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital is obviously a necessary and vital cause.  Some of you may have used it, I certainly did when my daughter needed care and surgery when she was 18 months old.  My profile picture shows us both back in 2007 - when she was three and I was younger...
Please sponsor if you can.  If not, just laugh as my body steadily falls apart throughout November.

I’m doing 100 push-ups a day in November for GOSH Charity! 

I’m challenging myself to do 100 push-ups a day this November to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity (GOSH Charity).

Every day brings new challenges at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Every day, around 750 seriously ill children and young people are seen at GOSH from all over the UK for life-changing treatment and care. Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses, and the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs. 

And with every push-up I do, I’ll be helping GOSH Charity give seriously ill children the chance of a better future.

This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support, so please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference.
