09/22 – Signing off
Well it time for me to say good bye. Sorry about the break, was caught by surprise by the speed of superwoman
Its been a privilege and an honour to play a small part in such an amazing acheivment. I will keep updating the the site with your comments, Michelle will be resting on the way home, but the next post will be hers. Its been a pleasure to meet you all and to see just how many family and friends she has, she is an extremely lucky lady.
You all have a brilliant day
Leroy

Leroy,
Thank you so much for keeping the website updated. I really appreciate that you let us know when Michelle started swimming and when she reached the French shore.

YIPPEEE. Congratulations!!! What an accomplishment, and what a great time! I am sorry that I am just now getting back to what happened…missed a few days including during the big event. (We had a big storm here, lost power for almost two days, and have had a lot of trees and branches to clean up.) Anyway, I’m sure my sacrifices to Anglichannus helped, and while I couldn’t send any comments during the swim, I was sending good vibes. WAY TO GO!

It seems an understatement to say that you are truly an INSPIRATION — especially to us whimpy sprinters! I am so glad you are safe and sound and made it — it must be an amazing feeling.
Huge congratulations!

I AM SO UNBELIEVABLY PROUD!!!! THERE SIMPLY ARE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE MY ENTHUSIASM. Michelle, I love you to pieces. I cried when I read that you made it. I know how hard you have worked, I know how scared you were, and all along I knew you would kick the Channel’s ASS!!! I only wish I could celebrate with all of you! You are an inspiration to people everywhere- I hope you know that friend!

HI Michelle,
So glad you made it so did we but we trailed you! Even in our relay we did 12 hours 44.
Very impressed by your swim.
I feel very surreal today and I only swam 2 hours. If you swing by London on your way home, you still have my number call and say hi.
Well done
Vicki

Michelle and Jane: We’re all dying to know your reflections now that the goal is met. Do you have time to send us a little something before you head back?
