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.

My Updates

27 km!

Saturday 29th Nov
Lumpy last swim - complete with winch practice happening as we swam past, adding to the chop and splash!

Second last day

Friday 28th Nov
Lunchtime swim - lots of little fishies, a ray hiding in the sand, some small and non menacing jellies - and one beautiful Haeckel’s jelly

Nearly there…

Thursday 27th Nov
A few jellies to dodge this morning but better in the shallows

Sad swim

Tuesday 25th Nov

Day 14

Monday 24th Nov
Someone left the tap on in the pool! Williamstown has a new infinity pool ?

Day 13

Saturday 22nd Nov
A bit of a zig zag at the end to make the distance up to 2 km (and avoid the divers). Pleased to report a significant drop in jelly numbers!

Day 12

Thursday 20th Nov
Looks inviting…but it is jelly central out there! Pool was a wise choice. Really hoping the winds blow our pesky stingers away soon so I can finish the challenge in the bay!

Day 11

Wednesday 19th Nov
Bay was icky today. Back to the pool tomorrow 

Day 10

Sunday 16th Nov
A bit bleak looking out there - but a nice south westerly to make the swim back in a bit more challenging!

Day 9

Saturday 15th Nov
Out towards the west today! Beautiful conditions although bay still a bit murky. Saw a banjo and lots of disco fish!

Day 8

Friday 14th Nov
Another pool day - bay still murky!

Day 7

Thursday 13th Nov
So awesome to be back in the bay today for a very chilled 1 km. Looking forward to ramping up the distance over weekend!

Day 6

Wednesday 12th Nov
Lost a couple of days due to bad weather - and being under the weather - but back on track today! Fingers crossed for good conditions for a bay swim tomorrow!

Day 5

Saturday 8th Nov
Melbourne weather continues to hamper my efforts for bay swims so today’s swim was at Fitzroy pool in the rain!

Day 4

Thursday 6th Nov
Covered in little stings after this morning’s swim but it was totally worth it a) for the cause (!!) and b) for the gorgeous Port Jackson I saw gliding under me towards the end of the swim. Beautiful morning!

Day 3 WSLSC

Tuesday 4th Nov
Too much rain over last 24 hours to brave the bay - so I had a delightful swim in my fave outdoor pool!

Day 2

Sunday 2nd Nov
Much nicer conditions for day 2! I’m only a few $$ off my fund raising target. Thank you so much to everyone for your generous donations to this special cause!

Day 1

Saturday 1st Nov
A choppy first swim accompanied by a few stingers but saw a cute baby stingaree!

Thank you to my Sponsors
