Swim 8km in March 2025

My Activity Tracking

kms

My target 24 kms

3km .....

Today, I successfully completed a 3km swim!!!!!!! Feeling strong and motivated to keep pushing forward. Every stroke counts toward the goal!

2025 v 2430 ....it happens

If you swam 81 lengths in a pool that was actually 30 meters long instead of 25 meters, your total distance would be:

81 × 30m = 2,430 meters (or 2.43 km)

If your watch was set to 25 meters, it would have incorrectly recorded:

81 × 25m = 2,025 meters (or 2.025 km)

So, your actual swim distance was 405 meters (or 0.405 km) longer than what your watch recorded!

2km swimm

Pushed my limits and conquered 2070 meters in the pool today with my partner in crime Cristina! Feeling strong and motivated to keep going 💪 

1200m

Another  1200m achieved in my swimming challenge!

Day 2

After 90 minutes of playing in the pool with my daughter Mia, I completed 120m of swimming. The distance may not be the longest, but it was truly special because I achieved it with my amazing little supporter. I cherish every moment with her!

1st km

I've just completed the first kilometer in my swimming challenge, and it feels absolutely amazing! The water, the rhythm, and the energy—everything is just flowing perfectly. On to the next!

I’m swimming 24km in March for GOSH Charity! 

This March, I’m taking on a swimming challenge to raise money for the Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity (GOSH Charity).

The official challenge is 8km, but I’ve decided to push myself and swim 24km to raise as much as possible for all the kids who aren’t as fortunate as others.  

Childhood is special. It should be a time of joy, wonder, curiosity and fun. Of making friends, making mistakes, and growing into the adults we become. But it’s also fragile, and sometimes all too brief.

That’s why Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity raises funds to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. For the children from all over the UK who are treated by Great Ormond Street Hospital every day, for children with rare or complex illnesses everywhere, for this generation and all those to come. Because no childhood should be lost to serious illness.

And with every kilometre I swim, and every pound raised, we’ll be helping to give seriously ill children the best chance and the best childhood possible.

Please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference.
