Friday night saw the majority of the children swimmining continuously for
charity. We are still awaiting for some money so don’t know the final amount
raised and despite me setting a wrong target (I wrote 6400 instead of 4600) the
swimmers even beat this target. Overall they swam a total of 6,558 lengths which
equals 163.95Km, a superb effort by all.
There were some notable swims during the sessions with Ellen achieving her
target of 200 lengths without stopping, however the swimmer of the night has to
be Jamie Rogers who swam in both the second and third sessions clocking an
amazing 366 lengths or 9,150 metres.
For those who want the detail the table below shows how far each lane in each
session swum.
Lane | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Total Lengths | Total Distance |
Session 1 | 220 | 340 | 226 | 228 | 174 | 1188 | 29,700 |
Session 2 | 652 | 704 | 464 | 422 | 410 | 2652 | 66,300 |
Session 3 | 536 | 452 | 560 | 460 | 710 | 2718 | 67,950 |
Well done to all swimmers and helpers
