On the 29th March, Elly and I will be taking the plunge to try and raise as much as possible to support these two amazing charities who have themselves supported too many of our family and friends over the last few decades.  Sadly, there are too many people to name here but they and their families know who they are and that we are thinking of them all.

Last year, I completed the 1.5k challenge and felt elated so, in the spur of the moment, agreed to raise my challenge to 2.5k this year! As I swam thousands of lengths with Elly in utero and then sat poolside whilst she competed in events for her school and club team, I thought it only right that she should join me this year. 

My extra challenge to myself is to try and complete the 2.5k in the same time that Elly does the 5k.  This is probably a step too far (unless I tie weights to her ankles) but I'm going to give it a go.

Thank you in advance for any support you can give us, 

Celia and Elly xx
