Our Approach

Our Story

My Bionic Boyfriend is a smart and sassy blog that reports from the sidelines on Douglas McConnell's training for open water swims, including the biggest swim of his life ... The English Channel. And his swims are more than check marks on his bucket list, they are also fundraisers for ALS. My Bionic Boyfriend is written and photographed by Susan McConnell. Together with her Bionic Boyfriend, they have 4 children, all of whom have been deeply involved in these open water and open ocean marathon swims.
