My Updates

I did it!

Saturday 30th Nov
Yesterday I did my final laps cheered on by my swim club and friends. 30kms in total! Thanks so much everyone for your support. This was for my mum and everyone impacted by breast cancer. I hope some of the money raised will go towards improving screening and early detection.

Aiming for 30kms

Tuesday 26th Nov
We are just blown away by the support we have received over the weekend! The courier mail had an article featuring Maxy’s swim and he has almost raised $20k thanks to your support. This morning Max smashed his 25km target so has decided to up his km target again from 25km to 30km.

Smashed my goal!

Wednesday 20th Nov
Hi everyone, I’ve hit my 20km swimming goal already so I’ve decided to put it up to 25km! Max

Shoutout to my friends!

Saturday 16th Nov
This last week my friends have been coming and doing some swims with me which has been heaps of fun. Thanks so much everyone. I’m nearly at 17kms now and getting to swim with my friends and having you cheer me on just means the world.

Swimming with mum

Swimming with mum

Friday 8th Nov
Mum has been swimming with me this week. She has to go in for more surgery today so this morning was our last November swim together. I think about you all supporting me while I’m getting through my laps! I’ve hit 9kms now. Thanks everyone. Max

Weekend triathlon with Ollie and Gigi

Monday 4th Nov

First swim!

Monday 4th Nov

Thank you!

Monday 4th Nov
Can’t believe how amazing this is Β Together we have raised over $14,000 for breast cancer research. I did a triathlon on Saturday and didn’t get too much more swimming in over the weekend but will make up for it this week! Thanks everyoneΒ 

Maxy has started!

Friday 1st Nov
A huge thank you to everyone for your support for Maxy. It’s been truly incredible and means so much to us all. I believe that the amount of money he has raised will make a meaningful contribution to BC research. He was up bright and early to swim his first 1km this morning! He is off to do the Noosa tri tomorrow. We will keep posting updates and he is working through all the messages and will reply to you! Love MarieΒ
