This Friday marks the first day of Movember 2024 Movember has been supporting projects on Mens mental health and awareness around Prostate and Testicular Cancer since 2003. My Dad has just completed a fairly full on few months of Prostate Cancer treatment - so its all raw. Through Camino Ultra Camino Ultra we often say that one of the most powerful skills is story-telling - sharing your own and uplifting others. Cancer and Mental Health are often subjects where men say very little. So we are keen to support Movember this year - with a heavy keenness to get those that can to uplift and support those who aren't in the same good spaces. Throughout November we will be supporting movement events - places where people can be encouraged to come along and run/walk/hike in environments 'where no-one gets left behind'. That said!!!! we are proudly supporting More Than A Run who are promoting a 10KM - 30KM and a 60KM run on Saturday 23rd November which Camino Ultra will be leading. So remember that number one rule: 'If you are reading this then you already CAN - who would benefit from you reaching down and lifting UP' - get them involved - go for a walk - check out Run Grateful and their Gratitude tips If you wish to join in the 60KM then please message below and lets build something powerful together. This weekend I shall be joining six lifelong friends on a Pilgrimage up Croagh Patrick - Irelands Holy Mountain - this will be a tough challenge and will kick start our Movember movement If you want to join our team and keep up to date with some of the movement plans JOIN US HERE - https://lnkd.in/enG2bAHz EVERYONE WELCOME x

Author, International Keynote Speaker and Advisor - Supporting the Mass Participation Industry to Thrive Post-Pandemic
Every mass participation event starts with the first step …. Sometimes it’s hard to believe that what started out as an idea to bring the Mass Participation industry in Asia together has turned into a global initiative that will celebrate it’s 10th anniversary next year. It wouldn’t have been possible without the help of many people especially Teck Yin Lim and Sport Singapore, Pierre Duvelleroy and njuko and Alessio Punzi and World Athletics whose early support helped lay the foundation. They were followed by a multitude of partners, speakers and delegates from over 60 countries to help transform Mass Participation Asia into Mass Participation World. A huge thanks to all of you. What was born in Singapore has created truly global impact. We are now way more than just an annual conference and it is with great excitement, as we prepare for MPW24 in Ho Chi Minh City in partnership with Bang Trinh and Sunrise Events Viet Nam (SEV), that we announce the opportunity for Host City Partnerships for the next 5 years. Albeit that 2027 is already locked in and we will soon make an announcement revealing an amazing partnership alongside a major global event. I’m particularly passionate about taking MPW to emerging markets - where we have already made huge impact. If you are interested follow the links in the graphic below for details. Expressions of interest close on 15 November after which a shortlist of Host City Partners will be invited to submit detailed proposals. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me directly chris@massparticpationworld.com Register for MPW24 through the link in the comments #mpw #mpw24 #massparticipation
