It was for charity. A heart health charity for when my Dad had his scare. It was organised for a circuit of a park, and we went around it eight times! It was during late spring two years ago, on a Saturday.
That's awesome. A buddy of mine did a 20k swim in the ocean for charity last year. He actually ended up swimming 22km's , and I was really impressed. It's amazing what people can do when they put their mind and body to the test.
