Jon Perkins completed the challenge at Yates on Saturday, April 23, and raised more than £4300 for the Disaster Emergency Committee Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.

He was aiming to complete 5000 kettlebell swings across two days, but he smashed his target and completed the amazing feat in just eight and a half hours of constant swings.

Jon said: “I can’t believe I smashed my target! It was a huge challenge, and I am still aching!

"I am humbled and so grateful for everyone that came and supported me, for such a worthwhile cause. I would also like to thank Yates in Sheffield who hosted this event for me and the team who kept me fuelled up throughout the day.

“I am now looking into planning my next challenge, after a rest of course, and my next fundraising mission.”
