Papyrus is the national charity for the prevention of youth suicide. In 2015, four young people (under the age of 35) committed suicide every single day. Many more attempted or considered it. Papyrus believe that with appropriate support and education, many young suicides can be prevented. 





I'm not very good at many things, but I am good at barely sleeping and working out so I'm going to combine the two and do a sponsored 24 hour workout-a-thon on the 15th September 2017. 





I will be doing 24 workouts over 24 hours, every hour on the hour. Each workout must be completed within the hour and have been submitted to me by either my work colleagues from the gym, or my own personal training clients. If I finish any workout before the hour slot is up, that will be my rest.... until the next hour begins and I start another workout. 





Workouts are as follows (all named individuals are my colleagues)!
