Ethan Stirrat: Perth doctor conquerors Marathon Murph to raise funds for his charity Hurt to Help
A Perth doctor has put his body to the test, conquering Marathon Murph in the name of charity. Ethan Stirrat took on the incredible fitness challenge in support of his charity Hurt to Help last month. Marathon Murph involves running two marathons within a day and completing almost 10,000 exercises in between each run. The 25-year-old doctor was doing it for the childhood cancer patients that his charity supports. 'I chose to do this, I chose to put myself in this position, I can stop at any time, there are a lot of people out there in worse positions that they don't have a say in,' he told Nine news. 'One of our beautiful recipients, Eliza, unfortunately lost her battle with cancer . . . we're doing this for her.' To complete the challenge Dr Stirrat ran 84.4km, completed 7176 squats, and 608 pull-ups, all while wearing a 20lb weighted vest. Dr Sirrat didn't complete the challenge without injury; he tore his rotator cuff just after the first marathon. The 21-hour event was hosted by Habitual Strength. The dedicated young doctor was celebrated by his charity on Instagram. 'Ethan Stirrat just completed the Marathon Murph—and it was more than just a brutal test of grit. He did it to raise funds for Hurt to Help, supporting families impacted by medical emergencies, domestic violence, and disasters,' they said. 'He pushed through pain so others don't have to face theirs alone.' Dr Sirrat founded the charity Hurt to Help, which provides crucial financial aid to individuals and families affected by medical issues, accidents, natural disasters, domestic violence, and other crises. 'Our mission is to build a fully transparent charity that directly connects donors with recipients, showcasing exactly where every dollar goes and the impact it makes,' the charity said on its website. Hurt to Help is an official charity partner of Run for a Reason, and it's calling on West Aussies to run with them on Sunday May 25 in support of Australians going through tough times. Ethan Stirrat will complete another treacherous fitness endeavour tomorrow, competing in the Margaret River Ultra Marathon.
