Story
Hello everyone
I completed my challenge on the 14th August at Tinside Lido.
The water was freezing - 15 degrees & I decided to swim in just a swimsuit. There were lots of people doing the swim, choosing either 1.5, 2 or 5 km challenges.
There were quite a few people in my lane & at times it got quite congested. As it was so cold my strategy was to finish as quickly as possible! I managed to complete the 5km in around 1hr 25mins.
It took me ages to warm up after but I am really pleased that I managed to do it & have so far raised around £250.
Thank you to everyone who came along to support me & all those who have sponsored me.

I am swimming 5km on the 14th August at Tinside Pool at Twilight in aid of St Luke's Hospice.
This charity means a great deal to me as the Hospice looked after both my Nanna & my Great Grandfather.
It would be really great if you would support by sponsoring me here. If you want to come along & watch I will be getting in the water at 18.30.
Thank you!
