Crikey - that's fabulous! Well done your dd Is that 64 lengths? Amazing.

PS did the people who sponsored her realise she was going to swim that many lengths

congratulations and very well done to your DD. I swam a mile during the summer for charity as well and it's a heck of a long way. She's every right to be proud of herself, very proud in fact.
