On Sunday I got a crazy idea. To swim the English Channel this summer. Not so much as to literally swim it (although maybe eventually) but to swim the distance of the English Channel, 21 miles, in my backyard. After crunching the numbers using the distance of my pool, 34 ft, to the channel I deduced it would be 1630 laps to swim, a lap being twice the length of my pool. Both my dad and I are swimming the 1630 laps. It has become a little competition to see who can finish the fastest. Every day I try to get in the pool at least once and I chart my distance on a map of the channel.
So here's to reaching my goals and swimming the English Channel. What are your goals for the summer?
