At it again

Hello people. As you know last year I biked 500 miles for Diabetes Uk and apart from raising a lot of money, my legs got HUGE (we'll my quads did. Still had tiny calfs 😄)

This time I've switched it up. Ive signed up to swim 44 miles over 12 weeks. Doesn't sound a lot compared to 500 miles in a month but considering it would be 50 lengths of the pool at my gym EVERYDAY FOR 3 MONTHS I may have bitten off more than I can chew.

I had my first test swim yesterday to gauge my speed, effort and recovery etc. I did 30 lenghs in just under an hour with a couple of rests. My plan is to do 25 lengths then quick calorie and hydration break and then back in for the last 25, plus a weekly rest day I should be able to do it. Or I just try and float my way through a few lengths to rest a bit 😅

Either way im really excited about this goal and can't wait to see the results. Should my weight sky rocket like it did last time I may try and do a few of these challenges a year.

I won't be posting weekly progress reports like last time (unless I get ripped and or fat so expect a few progess pics. Id be happy with normal sized arms) but anyway heres the link to my page. I didn't sign up for the rewards so please don't think youre trying to earn me a sexy swimming cap. Nobody needs to see me in that 😅

Thank you all in advance 💪💛💛

Update: Neck sore from holding my face above the water during my breaststroke. May get myself a hello kitty snorkel 🤣
