Day 3

Sunday 6th Oct A nice quick swim today before seeing some family for lunch. The poop was back again (okay ... turns out it was actually a leaf in the end 😳). The annoying thing from today is that I started itching like crazy (really was me exerting heat because I was sweating and swimming like a maniac. Finally reached 100 laps and I'm ready for more. I hope the pool is prepared for my awesome swimming skills.  Share

DAY 1!!!!!!!!! - Oct 1

Friday 4th Oct Sorry for the delay but here is day 1 of my swimming challenge to raise awareness to suicide and mental health in rural areas. Off to a great start - 64 laps! I hope you join me in this journey, and I'll see you at the end! Share

Day 2 - October 4th

Friday 4th Oct Day 2 of my swimming challenge and I've already encountered a fear to many swimmers. Or maybe just me 😳🤣.... At the bottom of the pool was a brown small little log. I think you can all guess what it was .... To be honest I wasn't entirely sure it was that 'thing' but I swam breaststroke as fast as my sore little muscles could (if you swim this relaxing stroke, you will know how difficult that was 😂). However, 15 laps are better than none at all and not getting off the couch, so I call today a win. If you are there with me, thanks for reading and keeping up. If you even are there. I hope you are otherwise this is a lonely little blog that feels much like Julie Powell's when she first started her Julie & Julia blogging journey (it's a very good movie, I suggest you watch it).  Share
