Dear All,
As some of you already know… I am facing my fear of the ocean waves (and the creatures in it….. eek) by signing up to swim the 1km North Bondi Classic and Palm Beach in January and February 2018.
I am doing this with an incredible foundation called Can Too Foundation , a registered Australian charity that’s as committed to fighting cancer as I am. Everyone has been touched by cancer - whether themselves or a loved family member or friend - and how amazing would it be to discover through research how to stop the dreaded big "C".
Can Too is providing me with a 12 week training program, support and mentoring. Training is currently in full swing, pool session on a Wednesday evening, beach session down at Manly on a Saturday morning and multiple walks and yoga sessions! I’m hoping after 2 months training I will be fit and capable of surviving the big swim and facing my FEARS!
Last weekend was the Can Too Christmas Swim at Palm Beach and although nervous on arrival at the beach, after entering the water with 100+ fellow CanTooers, quite a few waves and bumpy out the back, I did it- although enjoy did not enter my mind and survived! I just kept reminding myself why I am doing this, for those that can’t and to try and help make a difference!
I am committed and passionate to raising $2000 and am asking for your support so that the Can Too Foundation can continue transforming lives.
