Swim like a fish?

Well I don't...but I can't wait for the challenge. I know I'm not going to be the fastest swimmer so I've decided to increase my chances of a top 10 finish in my category by entering the 30-39 age group NO-WETSUIT category, I actually wanted a completely nude category but the organisers were concerned with disruption to the bridge traffic.

Children mortality and poverty are strongly connected. Diseases such as malaria are easily prevented and it is great to be able to participate in a global effort.

Please spare a $ or two.

Cheers

DH

p.s. hopefully no orcas or sharks on the 5th November!!!
p.p.s the picture is of my new son, Oliver. Children are so precious.
