To know Kenneth was to love Kenneth. His positivity, motivation, and strength were such an inspiration to so many people. And he never backed down, not even when he received his cancer diagnosis on January 1st, 2013, when he experienced symptoms after doing a ‘7 minutes of burpees’ workout. In fact, he used his diagnosis as a catalyst to work even harder.
That’s why every year, on January 1st, he would repeat this workout as a way to show gratitude that he was still here and able to do it. Each year he would support an organization close to his heart, and would enlist friends and family to join in and show their support as well.
January 1st, 2024 would be the 14th consecutive year of Kenneth’s 7 Minute Burpee Challenge. And this year, even though Kenneth is no longer here to do his burpees, we will do them for him. We hope that you can join us.
