SWIMMERS' efforts in an altogether different challenge are being hailed for putting them in a strong position for the sport's resumption. Winsford Amateur Swimming Club's members and their families racked up around 14 times the number of miles set as the target of a walking mission during lockdown – pounding even further than the airline distance to Australia! What began as a bit of harmless fun to maintain an element of teamwork and active lifestyle turned into a fully committed and highly charged competition, not only between the swimmers but parents as well.
