Push for Prostate Cancer 2026

My Pushup Progress

My Progress

1,195 pushups

My Target

1,000 pushups

30 Days, 750 Push-Ups, 1 Cause

This September I've set myself a fundraising challenge to help bring down prostate cancer and support our mates.

Here's the gameplan:

I smash out heaps of push-ups throughout the month to inspire you to dig deep towards life-saving research and support.

Let's tackle prostate cancer together. Donate now. Because prostate cancer is killing people in our community. It's the most diagnosed cancer for blokes in NZ.

Your support helps provide research into treating and diagnosing prostate cancer, along with support for people affected by a diagnosis. Plus you'll be helping raise awareness so more blokes know to get tested when they need to.

Donate now.

My inspiration to do Blue September

Wednesday 9th Sep

Earlier this year I had a sudden spike in my PSA levels. It turned out to be a prostate infection, but for a short period I faced the same fear many men know too well. 

Since then I’ve realised how many men in my own family have had prostate cancer — some treated successfully, some not — and how common this story is across New Zealand. Prostate cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in men here, and early detection makes all the difference. 

I’m taking part in Blue September to raise awareness and encourage regular testing. If sharing my experience helps even one person get checked early, it’s worth it.

Tackle prostate cancer together.
