Yes, I really really want to
Sep 13, 2020,04:03 AM
The truth it I contacted the Channel Organization earlier this year, and started training for it. But COVID came and the pools got closed, and my training was gone.
I was swimming a weekly mileage of 30+ km before the pandemic; and was about to bump it up to 50km per week. Used to be the first person in the pool every morning at 5.15am, regardless of the weather, a hundred laps of 50m I would do as a bare minimum). At first it was hard, but after a few weeks, it became as easy as walking.
I’m really going to do it once covid clears, and I can get a slot in the massive backlog of missed crossings by others this year.
(Strange thing is that my physique got chubbier with long distance swimming)
