26th May seems like a distant memory now!  The Great London Swim was a real challenge and I was very nervous on the day, but just like most things, the build-up is worse than the actual thing!  I was so scared when I saw the course stretching out in front of me - it looked such a long way - you don't get the same impression of the distance when you plough up and down in the pool!  Although I had planned to do front crawl, in the end I did mostly breaststroke, partly to see where I was going but mainly to conserve my energy so I would be sure to finish!  My time was 51 minutes and 3 seconds, which I was very pleased with. Thanks again to everyone who supported me for this event - both morally and financially.  I'll be counting on you again next year, all being well ...
