We're Off!

I never did finish writing about last year's 24 hour swim. I think it was a little too painful to remember.

But now the next swim is almost upon us, the one that last year's swim at Homebush was training for.

In April, weather conditions dependent, I will be attempting to become the first person (that we know of) to "Swim Sydney": from Palm Beach in Sydney’s northern outskirts down to Bundeena at the southern tip of the city’s boundaries.

It is a distance of between 60km-65km, depending on how straight a line we make down the coast and is expected to take approximately 24-28 hours, depending on conditions.

Last night we had a planning meeting with the full support crew (minus one) together for the first time. There was an incredible energy in the room and I finally feel excited that it's all coming together.

There's still lots and lots to do but we have a first-rate team working on this now.

Stay tuned!
