This month Surrey Fitness Centre’s member Lindsey will attempt swim the channel from Dover to France!
Lindsey has been in deep training for this challenge for the last 3 months including weekly Boot Camps classes, one to one Personal Training with Mark alongside countless hours at weekends in Dover swimming!

For those that follow us on Facebook and Instgram you would have seen many of the photos and videos from Lindsey training sessions with Mark….safe to say she’s working super hard to get fit for her challenge!

“The window that I have booked to swim in, weather permitting, is 9th to 16th August. I’m hoping to land in France on the 16th August and my 40th Birthday. My journey to this swim started when girlguiding put a 6 person team together to swim in 2010, we were successful. From then I’ve had a failed solo attempt and a successful 2 person relay. So this is my year!

I am doing this swim for charity, I am supporting Girlguiding in this area. Girlguiding supports women of every age, faith, and culture, giving them support, courage, and confidence to live life, never give up and realise their dreams!

If you wish, you can sponsor me here!

Lindsey has a blog all about her challenge, also a Facebook page and Twitter feed.

On the day of her challenge attempt if you would like to follow Lindsey’s progress you can on the Suva website. We will also update you all on her progress here!

Good luck Lins!
