Plus, you can access our Swimmer's Zone which has training advice to support you.
On the big day, you'll get a swimming hat, and we'll have a Cornish pasty waiting for you when you finish, along with your iconic Padstow to Rock Finishers' T-shirt!
Crossing the Camel Estuary under your own steam will make a real difference. Everything you raise will help our Marie Curie Nurses care for more people living with a terminal illness and their families.
