Day 989: another eventful night in Milwaukee, gotta fit my set in where (and when) I can!
•
Join me for Day 1,000 on September 30th (also the last day of suicide prevention awareness month - what a coincidence!) - tap the “Get Tickets” link in my bio... it’s FREE but that link has all the details.
•
This is about more than just pushups - the 22 Pushup Challenge originated as a way to spread awareness that an average of 22 combat veterans take their own lives each day.
•
A recent statistic has shown that the number has decreased slightly to about 18 to 20 a day, but that is still too many!
•
If you need resources, you can call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-TALK (8255). Or text HELLO to 741-741 for the Crisis Text Line.
•
If you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of suicide, reach out and ask for help. It could save a life!
•
If you’d like to participate in the 22 Pushup Challenge, I encourage you to do so! Just record a video and post it on social media (Instagram, Facebook... wherever).
•
It doesn’t have to be “pretty” because it’s “not about the pushups” it’s about the awareness! Please tag me so I can support you with likes and comments (and a virtual pat on the back).
