Hey Guys,

   I just finished setting up my website that was created for my EPIC 12.5 swim through The Straight Of Gibraltar next year. It will be a fund raiser that will create funding for programs and activities that will help stop the growing epedemic of Childhood Obesity in America. Please go there and leave me your feedback. Thank you..

 I'm confused  ..  you're going to be making the swim @ 400 lbs.?

  I hadn't yet, and I guess that's why I was confused, as I was pretty sure you had lost your weight already  ...       (I know I couldn't swim ten feet at my pre-op 461 lbs.!    )  

  I see now  you meant former 400-lb. man swims to Spain ..  

  btw, have you arranged for your escort for the swim yet?    That's very important when swimming through that area, as it is my understanding there are some heavy currents through the Straits, as well as a lot of sharks .. 

    Good luck ..  and congrats again on the Doube Century Club membership ..  !
