Another Sunday, yet another 5k

No event this week, but instead a training swim.

I always intended this one to be a bit of a plod. I feel like I haven’t done enough swimming recently (especially with the Channel Relay coming up soon), so today I just wanted to do a few laps of the lake, enjoy it and be ready to do more swimming this week. In the end I did just under 5k in a little under 1hr 50mins.

Of course today is Father’s Day too and before I left for the swim I’d been given a card and a present by my son.

So my entry for the Father’s Day competition is this one:

Father’s Day Photos

I don’t talk about work too much, but I wanted to let you all know about a competition that a client of mine is running this weekend.

As you probably already know it’s Father’s Day this weekend and Dreamstime is running a competition to find the best photos to represent what Father’s Day means to you. You could win £100 in Amazon vouchers (or $100 if you’re in the US).

To enter simply take a photo and then submit it to their Facebook page or Google+ page with the hashtag #DreamstimeDads.

It’ll be great to see your photos if you want to let me know about them too – in the comments or blog about it.

Good luck and happy Father’s Day.

A bit more about Dreamstime:

They are a stock photography company that has a huge presence in the US, and is using my company to increase awareness in the UK.

As a blogger, you could open account to find photos for your blog if you wanted to look for different shots, but you could also submit photos and earn some money from them. Do check them out – http://www.dreamstime.com/.

And here’s an example of a photo from the site.

UPDATE

Here’s my photo to represent what Father’s Day means to me – or more importantly, how I spent a great Father’s Day this year:
