Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

CLDF often send me emails asking me to consider doing various fundraising events such as the Great North Run or other half marathons. They obviously don't know how rubbish I am at running but I wanted to do something to raise a bit of money for them so thought I would "swim a marathon in March" starting on their Big Yellow Fundraising Day which is 1st March.

I enjoy swimming although I'm not a speedy tumble turning front crawl swimmer - instead I am a slow breast stroker who usually visits the pool once or twice a week to do 40-50 lengths so aiming to do 1703  lengths (26.2miles) in March is a real challenge for me!

If you can spare any of your hard earned cash to this worthy cause I would be very grateful.
