Marty and Tom are competing in a swimming race as a duo team on Saturday 29th May 2021.

The course spans the length of the Gold Coast, from Coolangatta Beach in the south, to the iconic cityscape of Surfers Paradise in the north – a total swim distance of 21.5km

While we are challenging ourselves physically and mentally in the race, given both of our connections to MND, we would like our friends, acquaintances, colleagues and strangers to dig deep to raise funds to assist in delivering support programs and fund research into treatments for MND.

So please get behind us by donating some much-needed money to a really great cause.

Marty has been working with the MND and Me foundation for many years and most recently with John Hanley who has MND. John has a wonderful singing voice and with the assistance of Marty and his friends, has recorded a number of songs to raise funds towards the disease.

Tom has recently lost his father-in-law Brian to MND after a very short battle with the condition. Having a very real connection to MND has sparked a wish to honor Brian’s memory and raise awareness of this monster of a disease in the community.
