Story
Thanks for coming here! As well as helping the Life Limited Children of Sussex and their families, you can also win £1000 by guessing how far I will be swimming in 10 hours. All of the prize fund is donated by Jeremy Silverthorne Fine Jewellery and Shoreham Vehicle Auctions. 20% of funds raised will also go to the RNLI, to save lives at sea.
THE SIMPLE BIT:
You are here to sponsor me for swimming up to 35,000m in a 10 hour limit. By guessing how far I will manage you could win £1000. THIS DOES NOT COME FROM YOUR DONATIONS.
Full details are on www.swimminggardener.org.uk
Here are some important pointers to help you guess:
I can swim 5km in a pool in 83 minutes. I can swim 10km in a lake in 3 hours and 6 minutes. I can swim 12km in the sea in 4 hours 30 minutes.
The Distance from start point to the turn point (Black Rabbit Pub, Mill Road, Arundel) is approximately 22,000m
The Distance if I make it back to Littlehampton from the turn point will be approx 35,000m.
Each donation of £10 will entitle you to 1 guess in metres, ie, 21,315m or 26,641m...
