Story

This August I'm taking on Breakthrough T1D's Sit Up Challenge, completing 1922 sit ups, 62 a day, celebrating the first big breakthrough in T1D history. In 1922, insulin was first used to treat type 1 diabetes, proving for the first time that blood glucose could be managed and that living with the condition was possible.

Every sit up celebrates that breakthrough and help fund the discoveries that come next. Research didn’t stop in 1922, and we won't stop until there’s a cure.

Thank you for your support, whatever you donate is really appreciated. Together, we can help to cure type 1 diabetes!

This is maybe, my only chance to discover my core muscles and hold on to them. Please help me. Every little helps.

I have to try and complete about 60 sit ups a day...

I know right...
