Story

WELCOME TO OPERATION SWIM
D-Day. 6 June 1944. Allied Forces crossed the English Channel to liberate Nazi occupied Europe.
Battling blustery seas, they landed on five beaches in Normandy – Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, and
Sword. This marked the beginning of the end of World War Two.

Throughout June, I will be aiming to swim 47km, the length of the five Normandy beaches. 

I started swimming 20 lengths a day,  three times a week back in February to help my recovery from back injuries, now I'm aiming to swim 72 lengths a day, 6 days a week!
