One of the reasons I am forever procrastinating about taking on a triathlon is because of the thought of swimming a couple of miles. Humans are so bad at swimming and it is ridiculously hard work. So I was really impressed to hear that Jenn and Matt are planning to swim the length of Lake Windermere, a whopping 10.5 miles!
Their gruelling swim, which will take about 6 hours, is raising funds for Cancer Research UK. I wish them all the best in their challenge: it is certainly way beyond me! Good luck!
