My Swimming
Challenge
01/04/09 19:00
As the last few posts indicate (see March
archive), I have recently changed the look of my
site and was rather pleased with the result. As I
mentioned on the Rapidweaver
forum, most of the credit
goes to Adam at
seyDesign. I just added
the colour scheme and a few other tweaks.
Anyway, my visit rate has shot up as a
result of that entry and so I’ve decided to
be a bit cheeky and take advantage of the
increased audience while it lasts.
Here in the UK the
Swimathon (not too late
to have a go yourself) has caught on quite a
bit in recent years. It’s a charity event
which raises money for care for the
terminally ill. I have opted to go in for
the SimplySwim section which allows one to
swim in a pool of one’s choice and also to
do the distance over several sessions. My
challenge is to swim 100 lengths in a day
(it’s a 25 metre pool, so that’s 2.5 km). It
might take more than one session. As I
mention elsewhere on this site, I am a bit
of an old git although I have been swimming
regularly for a while now. I would be most
grateful if you could sponsor me, even for
the tiniest of amounts. You can do this
online by going to my
page on the Swimathon
website. Thanks in anticipation.
