Week 3 into my swimming lessons and tonight I was taken off 2 discs and put onto 1 🙂 Instructor said I had strong leg kicks although cramp did kick in towards the end....

So before long I'll be swimming the Channel; be one of the Olympic swimming team or even a paddling on Blackpool Beach - we all have a dream....😉

Well done, sounds as if your hard work is paying off as well as having fun at the same time 🙂
 
Terrific Amanda, you are the poster girl for it never being too late to learn to swim! (Not that I'm implying you are of any great age!) Glad to hear you are progressing so well and really enjoying it!

:D
 
you wait till you have the confidence to swim not in a swimming pool ...i cant stand the chlorine but swim in lagoons when in wales and love it x 🙂
 
Great news :D
 
You are doing brilliantly Amanda. Well done. XXXXX
 
Well done Amanda! Next week - no armbands😉
