Sarah Hughen is truly surfing with a purpose… A wave a day for good health. Good on ya, Sarah!

“I have a simple mission,” Hughen says on her A Wave A Day website. “I plan on surfing every day – 365 days straight with no exceptions. My inspiration for the project is to use the challenge of surfing everyday as a vehicle to raise money and awareness for the fight against Breast Cancer. One in eight women will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer sometime during their life. This is unacceptable to me. My hope is that through research, awareness, and an active lifestyle we can help make this statistic history.”
