So Tracey Bell and me have decided to join a swimming challenge for Help for Heroes. We have to swim 11.5 km during the month of June. Help for Heroes is running Operation Swim 2025 and the idea is to swim the length of one of the Normandy beaches Gold, Juno or Sword. This is a whopping 11500 meters and therefore in a 25 meter pool that would mean we have to swim 460 lengths each during June.

This will be a difficult challenge. Neither of us have swam for about 10 years and as we are both 50 exercise is much harder. This should be the motivation to get us back into the swing of things. So it's couch to 11.5 km swans. Bring it on.

This is a fantastic charity so please please even if you can only spare 50p or a pound it is such a great cause.

If you would like to sponsor either myself or Tracey, please see our links below. Don't ask how, but I've somehow ended up with two links. My tech skills are somewhat rubbish :)
