As a challenge, I’m going to run, bike or swim every day in January.

Day Seventeen

When Mark Beaumont cycled the world in less than 80 days he had umpteen ‘Garmins’ to ensure he didn’t miss a single minute or mile. If one failed then another would be recording so he wouldn’t lose the record just because he forgot to press start after stopping for a comfort break.

For this challenge, I don’t have the Guinness Book of World Records checking my figures so you’ll just have to trust me when I say I swan an extra 750m. Honest. I did. Even if my watch said zero because I forgot to press start…

How was it? A swim is as good as a rest. Or at least that’s what I’m telling myself as I gear up for week 3.
