Along with a few buddies, I am going to take on the high seas, jellyfish, seals, pirates,  sharks and cruise liners and swim the 5km to Herm. I've been training really hard and have swum over 70, 000m this year! I'm determined but terrified.

I'd like to use this opportunity to raise some funds for my lovely friends' husband, Tony Hoppers'  MND "Fight Back Fund."  MND is such a cruel disease and every penny will make a difference in helping crack the causes and find effective treatments.
