My Challenge is to Swim 2 kilometres EVERY DAY FOR 10 DAYS IN 2024
My challenge is uncomfortable for me because...
I can't remember the last time I tried to swim 2km in a day (maybe 2017) let alone 2km a day for 10 days straight. But I figure if Neddy can run 4000 laps of a running track over 12 days, I can swim a few laps of a 25m pool.....Jackson, my 8 year-old, is going to join the challenge too and between us we are actually aiming for 100 laps (or 2.5km) a day for 10 days - 1000 laps in total. Let's get it!
