SWIMTAG tracks the number of lengths you complete, split times, stroke type and stroke rate. You can then keep track of key swim statistics such as average pace, distance per stroke, calorie burn and rest percentage. In August 2022, 11 swimmers at Berkhamsted Leisure Centre swam a total distance of 52.83 km taking 1 day 4 hours burning an estimated 17,304kcal.

Grand Blessings to each and everyone🌞 Today we hit the pool extra early for the latest instalment of my efforts forced Diabetes UK Swim22 Challenge After last week’s effort I decided today I was gonna go for it and crack out a 5km nonstop swim. I lost count after 125 laps, I then did a quick average calculation and picked up my count at 140. I kept on pushing until the pool attends had to almost drag me out 😂😂 Once I got my SWIMTAG data, I was well chuffed 😊 as I smashed my 200 lap target by 23 laps. I’m feeling it, but it’s an excellent feeling In total I’ve now completed about 10km, so 25km to go. Any support whilst I’m still completing my task can be graciously received here 👉🏾👉🏾https://swim22.diabetes.org.uk/fundraising/hayden1699 Here’s to you all having a blessed day 🏊🏾‍♀️🙏🏾❤️
