Generate Adviser takes on 30 marathons in 30 days to raise money for Movember.
This November, we’re supporting Generate adviser, Rob Wearing, as he takes on a (self-appointed!) challenge to run 30 marathons in 30 days in the hopes of fundraising $30,000 for charity, Movember.
Movember is an annual event where men are encouraged to grow moustaches during the month of November to raise awareness for men's health issues, such as prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and men's suicide.
More recently, challenges like Robs have been the driving force for Movember fundraising across New Zealand.
We’re super proud of Rob and truly impressed by the challenge (30 marathons!), and so Generate have committed to donate $333 for every marathon Rob completes up to a total of $10,000!
When we asked Rob about his motivation, he said “This is a cause that is very close to my heart and I can’t wait to get started. Last year I ran 1,000kms over the month, completing various challenges along the way and ended up raising over $10,000. So really trying to push the boat out this year.”
Rob’s goal is to raise $30,000 for Movember. If you’d like to support him, check out his official Movember fundraising page here and keep up to date with his progress on his Instagram page @hittheroadrobbie.
We’ll also be updating our social media with all Rob’s key milestones so make sure you follow us on Instagram and Facebook.
