First Day Swimming
Well, here I go, DAY 1 of swimming = 40 LAPS, finished at 7pm. Reluctantly donned my fab Kmart swimmers after work to swim laps which is genuinely something I haven't done since school. Even though I live in a flat with a beautiful pool (Thanks Gail, my wonderful landlady and friend) I've really only taken a float or lady of leisure approach to "Swimming". I'm also what the you might call spectacularly unfit. I did take my time with this and still nearly threw my back out and also swallowed a bit of water which might work out well following the last few weeks of rain. I'm sure I'll improve but even if I just do this 30-40 laps a day I will make it 😊. 14x breaststroke (or something akin to it), 14x freestyle & 12x backstroke (without the strokes - just legs & occasional flailing of arms). Completed 40x laps. I did 2x extras of backstroke encase I counted wrong lols.Support my challenge to swim for breast cancer!
9 people in Australia die from breast cancer every single day.
This November, I am taking part in Swim For Breast Cancer for the mothers, sisters, daughters, friends and loves ones who are impacted by this devastating disease.
I am doing this to raise funds for National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) to support vital breast cancer research to help save lives.
Please make a donation to support my challenge and let's make a splash to save lives together!
Thank you for your support.
