This is happens what happens if the start of the academic years is still weeks away and I have too much time. I take up stupid challenges.

The goal is to swim the Channel (the 22 miles of water seperating England and France) in 12 weeks. For my convenience I am doing it in the local pool and at a rate of about 1 mile (~ 1,6 km) per day.

I started on the 12th of September and so far swom 120 lengths of 25 m = 3 km.

If you donate you not only support people with spinal cord injury (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinal_cord_injury) but also help me get a free Aspire Channel Swim towel. :-)
