Mayo boxer Ray Moylette is LIVE on our social channels this morning as he attempts an incredible 1000 push-ups in one hour.
Ray is raising funds for Pieta House and also for frontline HSE services battling the coronavirus pandemic, and is hoping to reach his target of €10,000.

Ray has already performed the push-ups achievement, according to his Twitter page, and told us on OTB AM recently people thought it was a joke since he posted it on April Fools' Day.
"If you do look back over my social media accounts there might be one serious post to five jokes or whatever. I can't believe how many people haven't questioned me on it, and I did do it, if you believe me or not!
"I don't think I got the respect when I launched it first - I think it took people to try it and do it and then say 'wow, that was a challenge'."
⚡1000 push ups in 1 hour⚡
*This is not April Fools*
😂😂
I never could have imagined how difficult this would be.
17 push ups every minute for 59 minutes.

Ray was also asked about Nathan Murphy's choice of four athletes for his Mayo Mount Rushmore - when he picked Cora Staunton, Liam McHale, Kevin Kilbane and Ciarán McDonald.
"Mayo is a great county of athletes, we have all sports here at the top level - and he picks four gaelic footballers and a soccer player!
"Cora [Staunton] and Liam McHale definitely to stay on. Ciarán McDonald is probably the biggest icon in Mayo GAA history... Kevin Kilbane is a very good friend of mine.
"He was a professional and doing it for a job... now, I'm not going to take him out because I don't want to be controversial. He's definitely deserving of it, but to my detriment, I'm not finished yet. Maybe when it's done I might be able to replace some of them!
"At the minute I'm going to leave it as it is, but I'm going to put a question mark on Kevin Kilbane, I'm coming for his spot but he's safe for now..."
