I'm training with Can Too for the 1km Ocean Swim!
I am training for an event with Can Too, a non-profit program that matches fitness incentives with a good cause.
Beginners and experienced athletes alike are given professional coaching as part of a team to run, swim or cycle in endurance events- including 9km, half-marathon and marathon runs, triathlons, as well as ocean swims.
In return, I will raise valuable funds that go towards funding cancer researchers through Cure Cancer Australia.
Thank you to my Sponsors

Dear K, only 1.2 people a year on average die from shark attack in Australia, but bees kill three people a year and 1500 people die on the roads every year. So basically if you want to be safe, keep swimming in the ocean, but dont sit on the sand and definitely dont drive there. Goodluck!

My tip - always make sure there is someone further out to sea than you... that way the shark will get them first!!! Good luck:-)

Tips for swimming faster. Breath regularly, concentrate on and maintain form even when tiring, maintain steady kick pattern...oh and just picture a bloody great shark coming up behind behind you!
