150km swim for Starship Childrens Hospital

Brian from Mission Bay

Tomorrow I'm attempting NZs longest swim record, swimming 150km continuously down the Waikato from Karapiro to Port Waikato to fundraise for Startship.
Starship is our national childrens hospital and is hugely self-funded. They help families of children that have serious health issues like cancer.
If the thought of kids with cancer makes you feel a little something, maybe you could donate a little:
