I have just come back from the baths for lunch. My son started his swim at just after 06.00 this morning. At 13.20 when I came away he has completed 800 lengths of the pool, 614 still to go.
The money raised is for Young Lives Verses Cancer so if any of you would like to make a donation here is the link.

Only on his fingers that I know of.
He completed the 22 miles in a time of 13 hours 45 minutes.

Amazing feat!

Talking of amazing 'feet', did you complete your 26-mile 'marathon walk' the day before? 8-[

My own feet feel sore just thinking about it :-|

The walk is on hold due to an injury that has to heal first.
