Support my challenge to swim for breast cancer!

9 people in Australia die from breast cancer every single day.

This November, I am taking part in Swim For Breast Cancer for the mothers, sisters, daughters, friends and loves ones who are impacted by this devastating disease.

I am doing this to raise funds for National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) to support vital breast cancer research to help save lives.

Please make a donation to support my challenge and let's make a splash to save lives together!

Thank you for your support.

On the home stretch

Monday 24th Nov
So week 2 was great but week 3 was a bit too quiet in the pool and so at the start of week 4 I still have 2.15km to finish the challenge.  

I have been really enjoying getting back into swimming again,  I may not be fast but I swim with enthusiasm. ?

This week I have challenged myself to swim 700m  over 3 visits and tonight I completed 30 laps for a total of 750m. 

Now I have 1400m left in the challenge to complete and I’m determined to exceed that.  

I remember as a young mum going swimming with my mum Heidi and my daughter Bec. And so. Cameron.   We took turns minding the kids and swimming laps.  Every time I swam laps my mum would ask how many I had completed and then go do at least 2more.   She was very competitive and now I feel like I am channeling her by doing at least 2 more than my last PB.   Thanks Mum. ??

Thanks every one again for sponsoring me  and raising funds  for a really worthy cause.  

Week 1 is done

Sunday 9th Nov
thank you everyone for your support and donations. 

As you may know I am doing this fundraiser in memory of my beloved mum Heidi Beard who passed away in 2004 aged 64.  Too young and too soon.   I’n 2018 I had my own brush with Breast cancer but was diagnosed early which has changed my outcome significantly.    The key is research and early detection and I am supporting the work done research wise by NBCF but also urging my lovely friends to check your boobs regularly and get your mammograms done.   

In swim news I have completed 1.5km of my 5km goal with 3 weeks left to complete a further 3.5km.

After training in October I am now able to complete 500m of laps without needing cpr.   

Thanks again for helping me reach and surpass my fundraising goal.  

Thank you to my Sponsors
