A new adventure

As many of you know, I love H2O. Whether it is swimming in the ocean, paddling my surfski on top of the water or sliding down mountains on snow, I am happiest when my day involves some kind of water. However I also like to challenge myself and get out of my comfort zone. So this year I have decided to try running and have set myself a goal of completing a half marathon. 
In the past I have done a number of Can Too swim programs, so who better to turn to for help with this new challenge. 
Over the next few months, I will push myself to run 21km at the HOKA Runaway Half Marathon on May 4th, and also raise money for early career cancer research. 
Cancer touches everyone, and finding a cure is something that I feel strongly about. So I am asking anybody who can spare some money to support me in my journey to becoming a runner and help Can Too fund new research into fighting this disease.

I'm supporting cancer research and prevention with Can Too Foundation. 

1 in 3 women and 1 in 2 men will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. This means that potentially someone we love may have to battle cancer, and that's a statistic that needs to change. 

So I asked myself, "what can I do to help?" That's where the Can Too Foundation came in! Can Too provides professionally coached training programs for participants of any fitness level to run, swim and cycle their way to a healthier lifestyle and a cancer-free world. 

In return, I am raising valuable funds that go towards innovation in the prevention, care, and control of cancer. Since 2005, Can Too Foundation has trained over 22,000 participants and raised over $30,000,000 to invest in over 150 cancer research grants.

It would be fantastic if you could sponsor me, or even better join me in a program!

Thank you for your support!
