Hi All
Yes another crazy idea but all for a good cause. So this time is a 13k Swim from Aughinish in Co Clare to Salthill in Co Galway. Its the longest swim I have taken on to date and some serious miles have been put in between Salthill, Oranmore, Carlingford and Portmarnock over the last few months. There have been lots of bumpy swims over in salthill, encounters with jellyfish and seals and many a day when Id be asking myself "why".... and then I remember what it was like to have someone I loved dealing with cancer. So while Im on this adventure in the West I decided to take on a challenge and give something back to this community at the same time. Cancer Care West is an amazing organization and the Frances Thornton Memorial swim is one of the many events that help them continue their great work.
So my goal is €500, every donation will be gratefully appreciated.
