I did it. I actually did it! 🏊‍♀️ ✅

I’m so happy to say I’ve completed my 8K swim and by my own pace calculations, it’s actually over 10K! My Fitbit had a bit of a meltdown and part of the pool was out of action, so no pushing off the wall, but hey ho, we know what was done 🙌

It might not be a marathon or climbing a mountain, but together we’ve helped Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity raise nearly £100,000 through this group swim. That is just incredible. What they can do with that and the little lives it will help honestly means everything ❤️

Thank you so much to everyone who supported me. 

Big love to you all and have a blessed Sunday 💙

Over half way there!!!

Hi everyone 😊

Two further swims completed and I'm pleased to report that I’m now over the halfway point! 

Thank you so much to everyone for your continued support and encouragement! Here's to many more lengths for GOSH! 🩵

Purple Cap Recovered. Distance Added....

Hi everyone 🙂 Challenge update!

I’ve had a bit of an impinged nerve in my shoulder/neck recently, but thanks to some good physio I managed to get back in the pool today and have now added another 1.5km to the total - 5.3km to go 🏊‍♀️

I also finally found my Great Ormond Street swimming cap. It arrived before I started and I put it somewhere “safe”… so safe that I completely forgot where! It has now resurfaced though, and I wore it proudly today - even if I did look slightly like a purple potato 🥴

Thanks so much for all your support everyone! xx

So it begins… I’ve taken the first plunge…
