Thankyou so much for taking the time to visit this page and helping me raise money for cancer research in memory of my dad (who would be horrified at the thought of my doing something so reckless!). Many of you know that I'm a keen swimmer but I've never attempted anything as big as this before, so I'm hoping I'll make it to the end!
