In February 2010 5 members from St Albans Seniors participated in the Isabel Hospice 100 mile star swim. The aim being to swim a total of 100 miles, which is actually quite a long way - 6400 lengths, between all participants, and by doing so raise money in the form of sponsorship for the hospice. We had an hours slot to swim as far as we could and managed to swim a total of just over 5 miles fully kitted out in star costumes kindly made by Techno. The swimathon was a great success, the the 100 mile target was easily completed. It was a great way to support a brilliant local charity which does vital work within the community. A very enjoyable time was had by all and a well deserved pub lunch was our reward!
