'Cross channel' swim challenge completed...

It was a nice surprise to hear the clunk through the letterbox this morning. In this time of medals, the 750-odd of us that were part of the swim challenge for Macmillan Cancer Support are now sporting our own!

It's been a tough challenge. As well as being an amazing fundraiser it's been great to support this cause and - at the same time - rediscover my love of swimming. I'd turned into a bit of a slug over the last few years ... not any more!
