Inspirational Athlete

Whilst huffing and puffing on the treadmill at the gym this morning I happened to catch an article on James Wood, and felt compelled to highlight this massive challenge he is about to embark on (weather permitting!!)

James became paraplegic aged 19 following a road traffic accident, and is attempting to swim the Channel at some point this week (Channel swims are at the discretion of the pilot of the boat and the actual date of the swim will be decided upon by the pilot taking all things into consideration to ensure that the swimmer has the best chance of completing the swim, hence the 1 week 'slot' that James has been given!)

I will try to follow his progress and keep you all posted!
