As some of you may know, whenever I go swimming, I log the distance and the time on my Swimfit webpage. It's a fantastic way to keep motivation up, as it turns what is a GRUELLING SLOG, into a 'Look how clever I am' moment.
Imagine my joy this morning, as I logged on to enter in yesterday's training, and found this message, staring out of my computer at me, in big, bold colours, telling me this;
I feel very proud of myself. I've swum eight miles in six weeks. Well, okay, that doesn't actually sound a lot now I've written it that way, and if I ever was adrift in the Caribbean sea, I'd be in big trouble. But I managed it in the choppy waters of Spiceball Swimming Pool, so all power to my elbow, as they say.
Here's more proof (yes, I know, I'm showing off now, but I can't help it.)
I even got a gold star at the end - the locals were out in force with their bunting and banners, and things. A great time was had by all. Here's me at the start;
And here I am at the end;
Now I have to choose a different challenge, but - guess what?
The website's crashed! It seems that even the Swimfit guys are so amazed that they've had to go and have a cup of tea to celebrate.
Just one more, and then I'll go, I promise;
WOW I am really impressed and proud of you. I am not surprised the locals were out in full force 1 tiny little comment they could have got you a bigger gold star. WELL DONE.
