2019 099-365 Swim the Channel Second Breakfast

So this happened today...

Swim22 is a virtual swimming the channel challenge oner 12 weeks from 22nd February to 22nd May. There are 3688 people registered on the challenge leaderboard, although around 1000 don't seem to have any miles logged. (This might just be that they are not using the online tracker). To date 302 of us have logged at least 22 miles, and the guy topping the board at the moment has done over 145 miles, meaning that he's over 1/4 of the way on his fourth trip to Calais!

The facebook group has been very supportive, and we were all discussing having a croissant in "Calais" when we got there. This is mine, which kept me going over the last 20 lengths today, as the pool seemed to be filled with treacle. Those who are swimming the return leg, not including me, are promising themselves fish and chips when they return to "England".

If anyone feels able to support Diabetes UK on my behalf, I have posted the link to my JustGiving page below. Just the price of a coffee would be appreciated. My apologies for being rather absent in the group, but I've been concentrating on the challenge!
