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

Week 1

Holly hell...I managed 27.6 km this week..

I feel great for having achieved that time in the water but my body is tired beyond tired. Even sleep is hard. I have never had black rings around my eyes before so its all new territor But my body will get used to the 10km per week extra and i know things will get easier throughout this journey.

I am not convinced Narelle is totally over the impact this week has had on my body but I am sure as time goes on she will see it and give me some more

So Tuesday it is into week two. The same schedule as week one although I am going to get an ocean swim in this week as we are going to Sydney for the All Blacks game.
