    I remember in at least one other previous year, there was a thread on this which got some posts so I thought I would set up another one to discuss anything and everything related to this.

    Movember: Why men need to be aware of prostate cancer warning signs
    As Movember Ireland prepares to kick off its annual campaign, Helen O'Callaghan talks to experts and men affected by prostate cancer about the need to be vigilant
    https://www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/healthandwellbeing/arid-40073033.html
    What Movember Ireland director Jack O’Connor calls “our moustache-themed bat signal”, this year’s campaign, Lockdown – Shave Down – Get Down, is calling on people to sign up, grow a mo (moustache) or take on the Move challenge: to walk/run 60km during November - 60 being the number of men lost to suicide every hour globally.

    About 10,000 people so far have signed up for the 2020 Ireland campaign and 90% are growing moustaches. “There are Mo sisters – lots of them, women with dads, husbands and brothers, men in their lives who they want to live longer, so we want to give women something to do too and that’s the Move challenge,” says O’Connor.

    Just done, broke 600 rasied! I last did it 10 years ago!

    But could not get anyone from work to do it [indeed, I only decided to do it last minute myself tbh] - none of friends did it. I guess locked down, there is no peer pressure from collegues or mates...
