Why 739 push-ups?
Because 739 is the number of Kiwi blokes who lose their lives to prostate cancer every single year.
That’s why I’ve set myself this challenge for September—to raise funds and noise for a cause that hits way too close to home. Having seen people close to me go through it, I know how tough a diagnosis is. Prostate cancer is the most diagnosed cancer for men in NZ, yet it still flies under the radar compared to other health issues.
My arms are definitely going to regret this, but every rep is for those 739 men and their families. As a team, we’re aiming to raise $2,000 to fund life-saving research, better diagnostic tools, and support services.
If you’ve got a bit of spare change to support the cause (and my inevitable upper-body soreness), please consider pitching in. Every dollar helps get more blokes tested earlier.

Great cause, Juliette. Xxx
