My Story…
C’est ma fille Karina qui m’a demandé de participer à l’événement 1.5km. J’ai accepté avec plaisir. Elle vient de recommencer à nager régulièrement. Pour ma part j’ai recommencé il y a 4 ans lors de ma journée d’anniversaire de 61 ans. Cette journée-la, j’avais accès à une piscine de 25 mètres. J’ai décidé de me mettre au défi et de nager 61 longueurs. Nouveau coup de foudre pour le sport. Très agréable de nager en piscine mais rien ne peut égaler de nager en eau libre. Il est important d’encourager les gens qui se donnent comme mission de protéger nos cours d’eau. Merci aux gens de Ottawa Riverkeeper.
