UMIFIT LUNGES 4 LEUKEMIA

By Metabolic PeRsE

I'm fundraising for the Children's Hospital Foundation

We've created this page because we want to make a difference.

We are inspired by the work that the Children’s Hospital Foundation do, so we wanted to raise money for them.

Please help us help them by giving whatever you can using the 'donate' button. The more people that know about the Children’s Hospital Foundation, the greater their impact, so please also spread the word by sharing my page with your friends and family.

Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!

Our ballerina takes the floor 💛

Friday 17th Apr

Lunges 4 Leukemia is officially underway and our ballerina has stepped into the spotlight quite literally

Percy is taking on 60 minutes of continuous lunges in support of families affected by leukemia and the transformation from construction site to “ballroom energy” has been nothing short of spectacular (and slightly concerning for his legs)

With every donation milestone the challenge keeps escalating and so does the outfit situation What started as a simple fundraiser has now become a full blown community moment powered by generosity humour and a whole lot of quad strength

But behind the tutu and the jokes is something much bigger Every lunge represents support for families navigating some of the hardest times of their lives Every donation helps provide care comfort and practical assistance when it is needed most

So yes our ballerina is out there doing lunges
Yes he may regret every life decision leading up to this
But most importantly every step is making a difference

Thank you to everyone who has donated shared and cheered him on We are just getting started 💛

💛 LUNGES 4 LEUKEMIA: WHEN FITNESS MEETS FUNDRAISING (AND A LITTLE CHAOS)

Friday 17th Apr

There are fundraisers and then there’s this.

On Saturday, Percy is taking things to a whole new level with Lunges 4 Leukemia, a challenge that’s equal parts grit, community spirit, and pure entertainment. The goal is to complete as many lunges as possible in 60 minutes while raising money for an incredible cause.

Rain, hail, or sunshine he is committed. Legs burning, crowd cheering, and dignity slowly disappearing.

👗 The Escalation Ladder Where It Gets Interesting

Of course, we could not just leave it at lunges. That would be too easy.

We have added a little motivation

$2,000 Tutu unlocked and yes it is already on
$2,500 Tiara and makeup
$3,000 Percy chases the crane hook in a tutu on the next job
$4,000 Full ballerina performance
$5,000 Something seriously unhinged stay tuned

Let’s just say the higher the donations go, the more questionable Percy’s life choices become.

💪 Why We Are Doing It

Behind the laughs, costumes, and lunges is a cause that matters.

We are raising funds for leukemia support helping families, funding research, and backing those doing it tough. It is something that hits close to home for many, and this is our way of showing up and making a difference.

🚨 How You Can Help

Donate whatever you can
Share the event
Come down and cheer Percy on or laugh at him we will not judge

Because let’s be honest everyone wants to see a grown man in a tutu chasing a crane hook. More importantly every dollar raised goes toward something genuinely meaningful.

👀 Final Thoughts

This is not just a fundraiser it is the community coming together, having a laugh, and doing some good along the way.

So whether you are here for the cause, the chaos, or the costume we appreciate you.

Let’s get Percy lunging and maybe regretting everything

🚨 Lunges for Leukemia: When a Fundraiser Turns Into a Tutu-Fuelled Spectacle 🚨

Thursday 16th Apr

What started as a straightforward fundraiser has taken a very unexpected turn…

From the team at Cairns Crane Hire, we can confidently say this: a quick trip to Spotlight Cairns has escalated things well beyond what anyone anticipated.

Somewhere between “let’s raise money for a good cause” and “this seems like a great idea at the time”.. we ended up with a serious collection of tutus. 🩰

And now, Percy’s dignity is officially on the line.

🚨👗 ESCALATION LADDER ACTIVATED 👗🚨

Wednesday 15th Apr
LUNGES 4 LEUKEMIA just got dangerously glamorous…

You legends have already pushed Percy past dignity levels we didn’t even know existed… so naturally… we’re raising the stakes 😈

💥 DONATION ESCALATION LADDER 💥

$2,000 → Tutu unlocked ✅ (and yes… it’s already happened 😂)
$2,500 → Tiara + full makeup 💄👑
$3,000 → Next crane job… IN THE TUTU 🚧🩰
$4,000 → Full ballerina performance at Prolift 🩰🎭
$5,000 → Something INSANE 🤯 (we’re talking questionable life choices… you decide)

Every dollar gets Percy closer to peak embarrassment… and more importantly, helps support kids and families battling leukemia ❤️

📅 Saturday 18 April
📍 Red Arrow Carpark entrance, Edge Hill
⏰ 6:45AM start
💥 MAX LUNGES IN 60 MINUTES 💥

You don’t have to lunge… just donate and enjoy the show 😏

Let’s see how far we can push him… for a bloody good cause 💪

💥 LUNGES 4 LEUKEMIA 💥

Wednesday 15th Apr

Last year Percy nearly broke himself doing burpees…

So naturally… we’re doing it again 😅

But this time… we’re going LOWER.
Yep — LUNGES. LOTS OF THEM. 🦵🔥

📅 Saturday 18 April
⏰ 6:45AM start
📍 Red Arrow Carpark entrance, Edge Hill
💥 MAX LUNGES IN 60 MINUTES 💥

All to raise funds for an incredible cause — helping kids and families battling leukemia ❤️

👉 You don’t have to lunge (unless you want to join the pain 😆)
👉 But we’d LOVE your support

Every dollar helps… and every lunge hurts (for Percy mostly 😂)

💥 Lunges 4 Leukemia – One Step at a Time 💥

Tuesday 14th Apr

Last year, Percy pushed himself to the limit with Burpees for the Brave… and just when his legs thought they were safe, we’ve decided to put them back to work again.

This year, we’re going bigger, bolder, and a whole lot lungier.
