Moss Burmester (Retired Olympic Swimmer) and his mum Bronwen will both be swimming the Auckland Harbour Crossing on Sunday 2nd of December 2012.
In the past Rosie the dog has swam the 2.9km distance and due to Rosie no longer being able to partake, Moss has taken on the challenge of kicking his way across the harbour without any use of his arms. "I hope to be the new bench mark for people to beat me across the harbour".
A motivation of completing this swim is to raise awareness and funds for the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand. "Depression has come close to home and apparently affects 1 in 5 kiwis and I want to raise awareness and funds for it".
It is another goal within Bronwen's fitness regime to overcome her depression of 3+ years.
"I would not wish depression on anyone and I am now able to admit to people that I suffered depression and am still fighting it but without the fear of it", says Bronwen.
Cheers for your donations,
Moss and Bronwen
