Ma motivation
Collecter des fonds pour la cause inclut notamment:
Men's health
Mental health and suicide prevention

Over the past two years, I’ve raised nearly $4,000 for men’s health. This year, I’m hoping to raise another $2,000.

In previous years, I’ve challenged myself to get moving. For every $10 donated, I’d commit to a minute of physical activity. But this year, I’m trying something different.

I’ve been thinking a lot about men’s friendships and how difficult it can be to build and maintain meaningful connections. We talk about men’s mental health, loneliness, and the importance of reaching out. But how often do we actually do it?

So here’s my challenge.
For every donation I receive, I’m going to personally reach out to one different man in my life.

An old friend. A former coworker. A family member. Someone I haven’t spoken to in a while. No fundraising pitch. No agenda. Just a genuine effort to reconnect and see how they’re doing.

And I’m challenging everyone who donates to do the same. Reach out to one man in your life. Ask how he’s doing. Better yet, make plans to get together. Because sometimes all it takes is someone making the first move.
Over the past two years, I’ve raised nearly $4,000 for men’s health. This year, I’m hoping to raise another $2,000.

It's also the 2-year anniversary of publishing my book Dennis on the Run - A Men's Survival Guide to Lasting Change. This makes an excellent gift to the man in your life that is struggling with addiction or struggling to be the best he can be.

Here's a little bit of my story:
In December 2020, I found myself down from the pandemic. I was exhausted; I had no energy; I was tired all of the time; and I was fighting keeping my emotions in check. I wasn't taking care of myself. I decided that I was going to eliminate alcohol, eat healthier, meditate and I started to walk/run. I completed my first marathon in September 2021. In August 2022, I started cycling. I'm now almost 4 years alcohol-free and in close to the best shape of my life.

My motivation for supporting Movember is to bring awareness and open discussion for Men's mental and physical health. With the money, Movember funds groundbreaking health projects across mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer – 1,250 projects so far.

As mentioned, this year I’m tracking wellness minutes — one minute of wellness time for every dollar donated.

This little experiment is fascinating. I’m noticing wellness in new ways and being far more intentional about it. I’m realizing that wellness isn’t always about running or sweating — it can be found in the everyday moments when we’re truly present.

Granted, being on vacation this past week has made it easier to log some serious wellness time. But I’ve been deliberate about making the most of it.

Here’s a look at how my week unfolded:

Being present and grounded at the International Impact Book Awards gala — so much so that I forgot to take photos with my mom and wife (other than one red carpet shot!)

60 minutes of meditation (10 minutes a day)

2.5 hours reading and finishing Longship, a great book by my friend Cody Lakevold

Plenty of naps — highly underrated wellness activity

Four 6km runs in the fresh morning air

1 hour at a local community jam listening to live music

20 minutes in a freezing, unheated pool (bonus points for recovery!)

2 hours hiking the Salt River area in Mesa looking for wild horses

Countless hours visiting family in Phoenix and Mesa

Errands and small projects — changing lightbulbs, batteries, and setting up a new TV for my mom at their winter home

30 minutes shopping at an estate store

60 minutes shopping for new shoes and sandals

By my count, that adds up to roughly 19 hours of wellness time — or 1,140 minutes — far exceeding my weekly goal of ~400 minutes.

Some of these might seem like “borderline wellness” activities, but that’s the point. It’s all about perspective. Rather than zoning out in front of the TV or scrolling online, I stayed active, engaged, and present. To me, that’s wellness.

Last week of Movember. Thanks to all of my supporters! We once again raised more than $1,500!! After a big workout on Sunday (45 mins row; 1:45hrs cycle; 45 mins running), I'm at 35.6 hours of activity in November which is 2,136 minutes exceeding my goal to match 1 mins of activity for every $1 donated! What a great way to enjoy November!
