JOHN MOONEY - MR PERFECT CEO

Taking on UTA 50

John Mooney Takes on UTA50: Running for Men's Mental Health

At Mr Perfect, we believe in leading by example and our CEO, John Mooney, is doing just that. This year, John is lacing up his trail runners and taking on the Ultra-Trail Australia 50km (UTA50) to raise  funds & awareness for men’s mental health.

Why UTA50?

The UTA50 is no ordinary race. It’s one of the most challenging and scenic ultra-marathons in the country, winding through the rugged trails of the Blue Mountains. With 2,500m of elevation gain, steep climbs, and breathtaking views, it’s a true test of endurance, both physically and mentally.

For John, the challenge represents more than just a personal goal. It’s a way to raise awareness about the struggles many men face and highlight the importance of connection, community and open conversations.

Running for a Cause

Mr Perfect is all about creating safe spaces where men can talk, connect, and support each other over a simple BBQ. But to keep these events running and to expand our reach we rely on community support.

By running UTA50, John hopes to:
🏃‍♂️ Raise crucial funds to support and expand Mr Perfect’s free Community BBQs.
🏃‍♂️ Spark conversations about mental health and the importance of community & connection.
🏃‍♂️ Inspire others to take on challenges for a cause they believe in.

John isn’t running this alone, he needs your support! Every donation, big or small, will help Mr Perfect continue its mission to bring men together and provide a space for meaningful conversations.
