Channeling Positivity: Day 2 - It Goes On........
http://justineandkatechannelswim.blogspot.com/2012/04/day-2-it-goes-on.html
Inspiring young people to lead positive lives. Sunday, 8 April 2012. Day 2 - It Goes On. So we set off this morning at 7.45am from Newbury, today we had 36 miles and 26 portages to complete. We had made a pact last night that if we improved our speed on the portages we could be home and in the bath half an hour quicker - so we were on a mission! As a consequence we managed to paddle further today in less time - hooray! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Just and Kate's "Just Giving Page".

Inspiring young people to lead positive lives. Wednesday, 27 July 2011. Just a quick post to say that Kate and I completed our 2011 English Channel crossing on Monday 25th July in a time of 9 hours 58 minutes! Our pilots, crew and supporters are simply the best in the world - FACT ; we are both overwhelmed but very proud. Kate and I will post a write up of the journey as there are some very humorous moments! Please come and join me and hopefully Kate will make an appearance too (unless she goes camping?

http://justineandkatechannelswim.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Inspiring young people to lead positive lives. Tuesday, 30 August 2011. Channeling Positivity – the journey not the destination! The swell was bigger than expected and I had to work hard to maintain a good stroke rate. It was like being on a fairground ride, just one that restricts your oxygen! Kate commendably swam through her sickness and gradually started to feel better by her third hour. The “rocket girl” was back! The atmosphere on Masterpiece oozed positivity and we laughed and joked constantly....

Inspiring young people to lead positive lives. Sunday, 25 March 2012. Tapering and Planning - The Countdown Begins! Having managed through our heavy training week ending with Waterside C on 12 March, our training has certainly changed pace. Whether it is ideal or not the last 10 days have seen us out in our boat only twice due to my work and family commitments (sorry Liz! It just goes to show that even when you sign up to do something like this you still have to back peddle sometimes. Thanks for reading,...
