Aren’t you scared out in the ocean?

Tuesday 13th Jan This is a question or comment friends and family regularly ask me about learning to ocean swim. The answer is yes- sometimes I get scared. Recently, I had a tough time getting out the back of the waves because the surf was huge and I was dumped several times. It wan not fun! 😝😱 and yes I was scared. The thing is that I pushed through and got out the back of the waves and caught my breath and completed the swim. I don’t know firsthand what fighting cancer looks or fella like but I imagine it’s scary, has its ups and downs and is relentless. Is swimming in the ocean hard? yes- it can be, but nothing like a battle with cancer and the ants where my mind goes when I’m scared. I remind myself that what I’m doing is contributing to a cancer free world. We need to keep funding research to find a cure for Cancer and so that’s why I allow myself to be scared, to face hard challenges and to reach personal goals.
