Vir baie is dit \u2019n uitdaging om net een keer die Leeukop-staproete in Kaapstad aan te durf, maar Chris Vermeulen, \u2019n fiksheidsinstrukteur van die Paarl, daag homself vir \u2019n tweede keer uit om te kyk hoeveel keer hy in 12 ure teen di\u00e9 berg op en af kan gaan in niks meer as net sy Love your Nuts-swembroek nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In November 2020 het Vermeulen nege keer teen Leeukop op en af geklim of gehardloop nadat hy besluit het om sy steun aan die Love your Nuts-organisasie se bewusmakingsveldtog te gee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vermeulen het in 2020 vir 12 opeenvolgende ure (van 06:00 tot 18:00) die berg op en af aangedurf in sy Love your Nuts-swembroek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Di\u00e9 uitdaging het Vermeulen nie net aangepak om bewusmaking van testikul\u00eare kanker te kweek nie, maar ook om geld in te samel vir die Love your Nuts-organisasie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Twee jaar later het die Love your Nuts-organisasie weer vir Vermeulen genader om te hoor of hy weer betrokke wil raak by hul veldtog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vermeulen se plan is nou om te probeer om op sy persoonlike beste te verbeter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEk het besluit om die 26 of die 27ste November, afhangend van die weer, myself weer uit te daag en weer Leeukop aan te pak. Aangesien dit Movember is, is dit die perfekte maand,\u201d s\u00ea Vermeulen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So hoekom hierdie 12 uur-uitdaging? \u201cDit is redelik eenvoudig. Mans hou nie altyd daarvan om oor sekere dinge te praat nie en deur myself uit te daag om iets ballsy<\/span> soos hierdie te doen, kan ek mense bewus maak van belangrike goed, soos opvoeding oor testikul\u00eare kanker. Daarom het ek besluit om my God-gegewe vermo\u00ebns te gebruik om bewusmaking te kweek en my medemense te herinner om hulself te ondersoek. Ek wil ook \u2019n bedrag van R10 000 insamel vir die Love your Nuts-organisasie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vermeulen, wat tans werk as \u2019n persoonlike fiksheidsin\u00adstruk\u00adteur by Virgin Active in die Paarl, meen nie net is fiksheid belangrik nie, maar dat dit ook belangrik is om seker te maak dat jou liggaam gesond is in alle opsigte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEk sal graag my mede-Paarliete wil uitnooi om saam met my die uitdaging te kom aandurf, al is dit net vir een of twee keer en ook die Love your Nuts-organisasie te ondersteun.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diegene wat saam met Vermeulen die uitdaging wil aanpak kan gerus sy Instagram-blad by @fit_chris_sa besoek, waar hy al die inligting oor die uitdaging sal deel. Mense wat graag \u2019n donasie wil maak ten bate van die veldtog kan dit doen by www.givengain.com\/ap\/chrisloveyournuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
