Story

Hi guys.

I've decided (more like challenged) to do my own Man vs Food challenge. First of all, i'm not a competitive eater, never have been and probably never will, but i do have a decent appetite when it comes to it. What started as a bit of banter in the office could potentially be something very special. So on October 31st, i'm putting my Stomach to the ultimate test.

My Dad was diagnosed with a Metastatic Cancer of Unknown primary in October 2012 and died just 7 weeks later. Before his diagnosis, he was in very good health and was one of the nicest people you could ever meet. My dad wasn't into competitive eating, nor did he particularly endorse it, but when the challenge arose, i decided to give it a good go and also thought it would be a great idea for a fundraising activity.

All proceeds go to Maric Curie Cancer Care, where my dad spent his last few weeks in a comfortable, clean and hospitable environment.

So the challenge...as the title suggests, i will be eating 100 McDonald's Chicken Nuggets in less than 30 mins. It's that simple. 6 lbs of nuggets; quite harsh when you say it like that

Thank you for taking the time to read this and thanks in advance for any and all donations.
