HI everyone!
My name is Jelena and in January I have signed up to do Great East Swim Outreach programme. I haven't done any major sports during my life at all. A bit of cycling, a bit of walking and a bit of swimming with my head above the water. That's it! What was I thinking of when signing up?!
I have always wanted to learn swimming properly! And watching my kids swim over the last few years probably made me think I have to do it NOW before they get so GOOD so they do not want to go to swimming pool with me. So I've signed up! To do WHAT? To swim 1/2 or 1 mile in an open water! OPEN WATER! How much? 33 length or 66 length of the pool!!! OH DEAR!!!
Since then I didn't stop saying to myself: I can do it!! I can do it!!!
I've been going swimming regularly since January.
And then I thought if I am doing it anyway I can raise some funds for a local charity.
I've chosen Gatehouse to help local people who really need it!!!
Please support me!
Here we are!!! One week to go!!!
Training is going well. I am ready to swim half a mile in open water!!!
Hurray!!! I've DONE it!!!
Half a mile in 32min and 46 sec!!!
