24 HOURS FOR A PURPOSE 2026

🖤 24 HOURS FOR A PURPOSE 2026 

THE 24HR Story

Every year our community comes together for something bigger than fitness.

We call it 24 Hours for a Purpose a physical mental, and emotional challenge designed to raise awareness and start real conversations about mental health.

Because in Australia, we lose 8–9 people every single day to suicide.

And around 42% of Aussies will battle a mental illness in their lifetime.

So, we created a workout that hits both numbers

• 8 rounds across 24 hours (one every 3 hours)

• 42 reps of each movement, symbolising the daily battle so many face

The Workout:

42 Squats

42 Push-ups

42 Sit-ups

1.6km Row

1.6km Bike

1.6km Run

Repeat. Every 3 hours. For 24 hours.

We can’t just switch off mental health SO for 24 hours, we don’t switch off either.

We stay at the gym. We sleep on the floor. We eat together.

We play board games, run Mario Kart tournaments, read, and talk deep into the night.

It’s raw. It’s real.

And the conversations that happen during these 24 hours?

They hit harder than any workout we do all year.

This isn’t about fitness.

It’s about connection.

It’s about showing up for yourself, and for the person next to you.

Because when we push through hard things together
we remind each other that we’re not alone.
That sometimes, talking and moving can save lives.

This year marks our 6th annual 24 Hours for a Purpose.

And we’d love for you to be part of it.

You can:
Join the challenge — complete the full 24 hours or even a few rounds.
Donate or sponsor — every dollar raised goes directly to mental health support initiatives.
Spread the word — share the message, tag a mate, and help us keep these conversations alive.

This is more than a workout.

It’s a movement.

A community standing strong for those who can’t.

Join us. 24 Hours for a Purpose 2026.

Let’s get after it Together.
