Race month!!
After about 6 weeks of training (in my case learning), we are about to face our first challenge - the daunting Palm Beach to Whale Beach ocean swim. This whole adventure started with my need to find a challenge to replace running, and Amy Robson's enthusiasm and commitment to Can Too and its work.
Being a part of the Can Too South Pod swim squad has helped me to convert from running to swimming (or at least started the conversion process - there's still a long way to go). But being part of the squad also provides me wih the opportunity to help a great cause - heping fund cancer research. To reach my goal of completing both the Palm Beach and North Bondi swims I need to put in a fair amount of effort, most of which is way outside my comfort zone. To reach my fundraising goal I need the help of my family and friends, so if you would like to join me in raising funds for cancer research please make a visit to my fundraising page. Every little bit counts. Many thanks for your support.
I'm training with Can Too for the 2/2.5km Ocean Swim!
I am training for an event with Can Too, a health promotion organisation that engages and inspires individuals and the community to achieve personal health, wellbeing and altruistic goals.
Beginners and experienced athletes alike are given professional coaching as part of a team to run or swim in endurance events- including 10km, half-marathon and marathon runs; as well as ocean swims and triathlons.
In return, I am raising valuable funds that go towards innovation in the prevention, care and control of cancer. In 2014, our Can Too community has supported 19 early career researchers through Cure Cancer Australia.
Thank you for supporting me!
‘It’s so much fun and I can’t believe I’m going to achieve this goal that I never thought possible. A great program and team support is making it possible. You Can Too!’
