Autumn Ocean Swim 1km Program 2024

Bondi Classic

Did my first proper beach swim/race doing the Bondi Classic. I was terrified but my gorgeous aunty who has done it before calmed me with a coffee pre race! After over 100ml of rain the day before I was dreading the waves but the day was gorgeous and I finished the 1km. No sharks and still alive.
 My watch said 1.4km so must have taken a detour with my tragic sense of direction! thanks to all of you for supporting Can Too. They are an amazing organisation and team of volunteers. A hilarous photo that a friend edited! (if only!)

My first ocean training session

I am doing this to overcome a fear of ocean swimming and in particular sharks.Signing up to a wonderful grassroots organisation like 
 Can Too is perfect as it raises funds for cancer research and provides a huge challenge for me! 
The first session at Bondi was wild and full of blue bottles but lots of fun  and no sharks in sight 

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 18,000 participants and raised over $25,000,000 to invest in over 200 one-year 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!
