Swimathon 2020 · 27 March 2020 to 31 December 2020 ·
On the 27th - 29th March, over 21,000 swimmers will be heading down to over 600 pools across the UK to raise money for our two amazing charity partners.
***** I will be competing in the 2020 Swimathon for the 5th year running and will be competing in the 5K event which is 200 lengths of the pool which is just over 3.1 miles. I am going to try to beat my record time of last year which was just over 1 hour and 43 minutes, this will be a tough ask as it will all depend on how many swimmers are in the lanes, and how quickly I can swim with them in there.
Please help me raise money for these 2 worthwhile charities { You can read more about them and what work they do below } I would love to raise £300 which is the same as my Target last year, last year the Target was reached - AND SOME MORE - Lets see what can be achieved this year.--- Many thanks in advance for your support *****
