Time for the Big Swim

Cancer sucks. Every day at work I care for people living with Cancer - in fact, we all know someone living with Cancer. 1 in 3 women and 1 in 2 men will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime

This year I am raising valuable funds that go towards innovation in the prevention, care, and control of cancer with Can Too.

Over the last 14 weeks, I have been training to complete in a 2-3km open water Ocean Race under the superb coaching of the Can Too crew. The first few weeks in the ocean were psychologically really hard for me. I found myself battling a phobia stronger than I had anticipated and if I’m honest I would have to admit I did consider throwing in the beach towel. Thinking of my patients with Cancer helped me persevere - they don’t get the choice to quit. So I kept going… and next week I’m attempting The BIG Swim. This swim is an an iconic Sydney event - a 2.8km swim around the headland from Palm Beach to Whale beach - check it out here… https://youtu.be/4EY6aDQKM9Q?feature=shared

It would be fantastic if you could sponsor me!

The money will go to something we all need - finding better treatments for Cancer - a disease that truly sucks!,

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!
