Follow my complete journey as I prepare and compete in one of my toughest challenges yet...the 2014 Perth to Rottnest Island Channel swim.

The hard work is finished

After months and months of hard training I have nearly reached my first progress point on my way to Rottenest....very exciting! My first goal is to finish and everything else including times will take care of itself.

Today was my last squad swim before Townsville and it so happened I was swimming in the same lane as an English Channel swimmer...now that is inspirational. I watched him every time he passed and his stroke was silky smooth. Watching him actually helped me lengthen my stroke.
