The Cole Classic Swim, at Manly in Sydney, NSW, Australia, is the world’s largest Ocean Swim – this year there were 4,500 participants. I was one of them.
I spent a few months training for my first ever ocean swim (race) – at the beginning, I could barely swim a 50m length of the pool. But, by the end, I swam 1km and survived!
I swan with CanToo – a fantastic organisation which helps mugs like me to learn how to run and swim and compete, for fun, of course. They are a not-for-profit, and raise money for Cure Cancer, another fantastic organisation which funds medical research into trying to find a cure for cancer. I am a proud supporter of both organisations.
