 
RAISED: $3,115.00
MY GOAL: $500.00
I am taking part in the 2010 ACT Regional (Canberra) 24 Hour Mega Swim in order to raise funds for people affected by multiple sclerosis. Multiple Sclerosis is the most common disease of the central nervous system and affects over 18,000 Australians.
Did you know?
* The average diagnosis of MS is 30 years old.
* MS affects three times as many women as men.
The 24 Hour Mega Swim event raises funds for MS Australia's ‘Go for Gold' Scholarship program. ‘Go for Gold' scholarships are awarded to people living with Multiple Sclerosis covering a broad range of categories including education, travel, sport, music, the Arts and employment. MS Australia aims to minimise the impact of multiple sclerosis on all individuals affected by the disease, their families, carers and the community by offering a wide range of assistance, services and equipment.
MS Australia's goal is to assist everyone affected by MS to live life to their full potential and secure the care and support they need, until we ultimately find a cure.
Please DONATE by clicking on the button to the right and help MS Australia to help all people affected by multiple sclerosis.

Now, don't forget to have your carbs a few days in the lead up to the event. Have plenty of sports drinks throughout and replenish the carbs afterwards ... no different to usual really!!! |

Just remember Tony Abbott is only a year younger- so once you have finished your swim I think you should run up Black Mountain then ride to Yass and back! |
