I'M TAKING ON THE CHANNEL CHALLENGE FOR STAND UP TO CANCER, SWIMMING 60.5 LENGTHS EVERY DAY, FOR 31 DAYS.
I am raising money for Cancer Research UK’s Stand Up to Cancer campaign, by taking on the October Sink or Swim Channel Challenge. To reach the 21 miles on my own, I will be swimming 60.5 lengths every single day, for 31 days. Having Rheumatoid Arthritis and Fibromyalgia isn't the only thing I have to overcome because I've only been swimming front-crawl for the last 2 months, having been a breast-stroke girl all my life. I have managed 44 lengths non-stop so far but the training is going really well and I have no doubt that I will reach my goal, no matter how long each daily swim takes. The money raised will help take breakthroughs in the lab and transform them into treatments and cures for cancer patients who need them right now. Please donate if you can, as much or as little...
