My Swimming Challenge

As the last few posts indicate (see March archive), I have recently changed the look of my site and was rather pleased with the result. As I mentioned on the Rapidweaver forum, most of the credit goes to Adam at seyDesign. I just added the colour scheme and a few other tweaks. Anyway, my visit rate has shot up as a result of that entry and so I’ve decided to be a bit cheeky and take advantage of the increased audience while it lasts.
Here in the UK the Swimathon (not too late to have a go yourself) has caught on quite a bit in recent years. It’s a charity event which raises money for care for the terminally ill. I have opted to go in for the SimplySwim section which allows one to swim in a pool of one’s choice and also to do the distance over several sessions. My challenge is to swim 100 lengths in a day (it’s a 25 metre pool, so that’s 2.5 km). It might take more than one session. As I mention elsewhere on this site, I am a bit of an old git although I have been swimming regularly for a while now. I would be most grateful if you could sponsor me, even for the tiniest of amounts. You can do this online by going to my page on the Swimathon website. Thanks in anticipation.
