Midmar 2017

Loryn Holmes is raising funds for Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife

Set Yourself a Goal! Then Demolish It! I'm an individual of extremes - an all or nothing kinda gal. I'm either working towards a goal which in my eyes is of EPIC proportions or I'm totally invested in the game of Couch Potato. This year rather than just setting a BHAG, otherwise commonly referred to as a Big Hairy Audacious Goal - I thought I'd stretch it to a whole new level and swim not just one Midmar Mile or even two back to back (boring, been there done that got the medals) ..... why not join a special group of people who take on all 8 and form part of the "8 Mile Club". But wait there's more - don't just spend endless hours in the pool training, swim the 8 Miles and be done. Why not do it in honour of a worthy cause and raise some cash for charity? Okay! So I'll be doing just that raising funds for Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife, more specifically Save the Rhino, in their continuous fight against Rhino Poaching. So let's do something AMAZING together to protect the future of these majestic creatures ........... I'll swim! You Donate!#ChallengeAccepted
