Swimming the Channel at Seventy

My Channel swim is over. Monday the 22nd of June was the final day of the challenge. I met the target that I set myself of swimming eleven miles, or half way across. I carried on but didn’t make it all the way across. I managed sixteen and a bit miles, including about four hundred meters actually in the Channel. I am quite pleased with my effort, especially considering that at this time last year I struggled to swim five meters.

This is a link to my page if any one would like to sponsor me, if you haven’t done so already.

A big thank you to everyone who has supported me, with sponsorship or encouragement. And thank you to my swimming teachers, without whom I would have drowned
