Made it down to Tavernier. Ready for tomorrow's swim in Islamorada. It's great to be back down here and for such a meaningful and important cause.

Friends,

I swam both last Sunday and on Tuesday. Put in about 5.5 kilometers (~3.4 miles) total. It was tough but fun.

This Saturday I'll be swimming in Islamorada to make waves to fight cancer.

Thursday morning I was back in the pool again. Put in 2,400 meters (~2,600 yards) in a little less than an hour. I'm trying to slowly build up to where I was last year and be able again to swim 5 times a week. I keep struggling a bit with my muscles but learning not to go gung-ho into swimming is helping a lot not to hit a wall as I did last fall. Also, a big shout out goes to Julia Joines for first fixing me up and now keeping me going.

Friends,

This morning I was finally back in the water after a week off. The last few months have been tough but I’m getting better.
My new mantra: A swim at a time!

Please consider making a donation to one of my fundraisers.

Love you all!

My dear Friend,

I created this page to share with you my passion and commitment to raising funds for cancer research.

Even though I started making waves to fight cancer only in 2018, Swim Across America has been in the fight since 1987. They have been hosting charity swims with one goal: to raise money for innovative cancer research that would lead to breakthrough treatments and therapies. In almost 40 years of activity, Swim Across America has raised over $100M to fund the next generation of pioneers in oncology and cancer-support care.

I joined Swim Across America because I believe in their mission and want to help give more families hope.

If you are able, please support SAA by making a donation; you will also help me reach my fundraising goal.

Thank you for being an integral part of my effort to
