365 Days
12 Challenges.
One scary milestone birthday.
Hi, I'm Matt. On 10 November 2026 I turn 49. Which means I've got exactly 365 days until I'm 50. And, if I'm completely honest, that frightened the shit out of me a little bit. I've had things sitting on my bucket list for 10, 15, even 20 years. I've spent years saying I'll get fit. I'll do that thing one day. I'll go there eventually. I'll get around to it. So I've decided "one day" is now!
By my 50th birthday I want to be in the best shape of my life, complete 12 things from my bucket list, make more music, try some ridiculous things and document the whole freakin' lot.
This is my year before fifty.
Fitness
I've spent quite enough of my life sitting behind a desk getting slowly rounder. For once in my life, I want to know what it feels like to be properly fit, and to look like a Superhero. Cape optional.
F#ck It List
We all have things we'd love to do "one day". Then work, kids, bills and life get in the way and somehow another ten years disappear. I've had enough of "one day". It's time to actually do some of them.
Music
I've always been a musician. Music is a huge part of what makes me tick. So I'll be digging out old songs, sharing new ones, murdering the occasional cover and generally making a bit more noise.
