My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Mental health and suicide prevention

Movember is the leading charity changing the face of men's health, and this Movember I'm joining them. Together we can make a difference for men's health – in prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention. Help me stop men dying too young.

A few years ago, my grandfather passed away due to colon cancer. The doctors found a tumor and said he only had a few months left to live. If he had a colonoscopy in the last five years, they would have found the cancer early enough and he would still be with us today. However, he was from a generation of men who would prefer to not have regular check-ups on their health. This is what happens when men try to be overly-masculine, and they think they are too tough to be aware of their health.

I have struggled with my mental health for a long time, and It took me a long time to tell anyone about it. I really was not in a good place and I don't know what would have happened if decided to never speak up about it. Now, I am the happiest I have ever been in my life, and it's all because I texted my sister one day. I used to think that I was stronger than anxiety and depression, and I couldn't let it affect me because I'm better than that. But that is the very reason why my mental health was in such a bad place.

For the 3rd year in a row now, I will be growing a moustache to raise money and awareness for all forms of men's health, especially colon cancer and mental health. And because it looks awesome.

If you read all of this, I appreciate you hearing my story. I will be raising money with the current active brothers of ATO at UNH, my fraternity from college. Any donations or even sharing my page would mean the world to me. Thank you.

I ran 5.1 mi00:48:50

The runs have been getting easier, so I am making them harder. 5.1 today actually marks the longest run I have ever done in my life in a single stretch. I’m super proud of myself, and getting much closer to my goal!

Quick little 5k this morning. Hot and humid today in Durham, NH, but the grind never stops!
