    Hello to all the people who supported the Buttabean Motivation Team.

    Our page has officially closed.

    I please to announce we collectively raised $12,610 for BBM.

    This is a fantastic effort by each and everyone of you and will help so many families over Christmas.

    I would like to thank you for the donation and the continual support throughout my journey.

    To my BODY TORQUE family and the people who walked alongside me -

    I THANK YOU. Without you I couldn't have done it.

    Now it's time for me to take a break over the festive season and lose myself in a good book.

    I hope you find your WHY under the Christmas tree and you achieve your goals in 2023.

    Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and a fantastic 2023.

    NO EXCUSES - THE HARDEST STEP IS THE FIRST ONE !!!!!

    Thanks

    Tony

  • Finished the 100km walk within 24 Hours

    Hello to all the generous people who donated to the Buttabean Motivation charity.

    After 18 hours and 20 minutes and 131,023 steps the walk is finally over.

    Must say I hit the mental block between 70 and 80km but with the encouragement of some fantastic people at Body Torque Gym, I got to the end.

    Thanks to BBM & the Body Torque team for your support and company during the epic walk.

    I don't look as fresh as when I started, end up with a sore calf and two nasty blisters, the pain isn't as bad when you know it is for a good cause.

    To date we have raised over $11,500 - WELL DONE TEAM.

    The page is open for another week in case people wanted to donate once I completed the walk.

    I will be replying to each person who donated personally. Just needed today to recover.

    THANKS EVERYONE

  • The last training session

      5 December 2022

    This weekend was the last of my big walks as part of my training for the 100km event. I started off with a plan to walk 30km. I reached 30km and found that I was at least another 3km from home, so I had to keep walking. Finished with a 33km walk.

    We all know Auckland has had a lot of rain lately and when the weather is to bad to train outside we walk the treadmill.
