Brave, but crazy is more likely!

The best thing that happened to me when I trained for my first triathalon was that I fell in love with swimming all over again. It was an escape from the noise. A weightless place to let go of my worries and a way to connect with creation. Call it therapy for this busy mom. A mom, who recently fought her way back to health with diet, exercise and loving support.

When I first heard of the Mackinac Bridge Swim, I was immediately curious. I learned that in this event, swimmers are challenged to swim the Straits of Mackinac. Five miles in unpredictable water from the lower peninsula to the upper peninsula of Michigan. Brave, but crazy is more likely... The idea consumed me. I was determined to try. After participating in a few open water events, my confidence has now been bolstered. I'm ready to welcome the adventure.

The Mackinac Bridge Swim is about giving back to the community, supporting each other, and paying it forward. The director of this "race", Eric, is passionate about this and it truly shows. His excitement is contagious and he's created a community everyone would feel welcome in. I am inspired. Yes, I have committed to take on the Mighty Mac, but I have also committed to something equally big and that is to fundraise through this event for the volunteer fire departments of Mackinaw City and St.Ignace. Heroes to many! Your dollar will support these departments and secure my spot in the water.

Mark your calendars for July 26, 2025. Until then, I would love for you to follow my journey as I train and prepare for the event by joining my Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/share/g/65sGYfWcNTVe8Na3/. I will be posting frequently throughout the year about my progress in the pool, the open water and what kinds of things I am doing to raise money for our Heroes. Thank you! -Jordan
