Daffodil Day Dip

My Activity Tracking

Please "Dip In $$$$" In August 2027, I’ll be plunging into cold water for the almost 1 in 2 Australians who will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85. 

Please donate to my challenge!  

I know for many of you,  jumping into icy cold waters in the middle of winter is an invigorating lifestyle choice and hence no big deal.   However for me, whilst I've always wanted to be that person who throws themselves with gay abandon into the cold sea,  I can never quite bring myself to do it......until now.  Nothing like a worthwhile cause to get oneself out of their comfort zone.

The funds I raise from my Daffodil Day Dip challenge will help power world-class cancer research to save lives.  I am wanting to do this for all the people and their families whose lives have been touched by cancer. 

Your support means so much to me. Please help create a cancer free future by donating to my fundraiser now! 💛

Stunner in Manly

Today was a perfect day to add to my dip tally.  The sun was warm and the water was crystal clear.

Ditched the wetsuit today 🥶

My 3rd dip of the Daffodil Day cold plunge challenge and I’m getting braver…..  ditched the wetsuit but might have to rethink that decision tomorrow.

Monday 3rd Aug

Dipping is so much colder when sun not shining

Had my second dip today - back at Balmoral.  Bit cloudy today and the water felt much colder so I didn't stay in as long as yesterday.  Still, I got it done!!!

Sunday 2nd Aug

Cold plunge challenge in August for cancer research

Well my first "cold plunge" dip challenge in August didn't feel as cold as I thought it would.  It was actually really nice, so I managed a few dips and dives before getting out.   This could be the start of a new passion....
