I am swimming two miles this September to fundraise for Alcohol Change UK. I quit the daily boozing around 6 years ago and have been mostly alcohol-free for all of this time - I didn't even have a drink on my wedding day earlier this month!

Quitting the booze has enabled me to focus on fitness without the fuzzy head and lethargy. Training to swim two miles is certainly going to be a challenge as I am not a regular swimmer. I have just under 2 months to get ready for the longest swim I have done since I was a teenager. It is my birthday a week before the swim. Please dig deep and sponsor me instead of birthday pressies. Your support is most appreciated!
