He had contacted me there are already more than two years for me to share his challenge. He started from scratch: no swimming, smoking and sedentary, the bet was the most daring. Without trying too hard to discourage him, I told him that to achieve the road might be long and it would take a lot of motivation and constraints to achieve this power balance.

It has been making dentures, it has managed to find motivated people to follow him as his family, his wife Suzanna, his coach Valerie and its main patron, the town of Chatellerault. And especially during these two years he has continued to swim in sea and lake ... In April this year, he came to visit me for advice to fine-tune its preparation. We did some exercises and corrected some flaws. Today I think he is ready physically and mentally to face this great lady that is the English Channel, the Everest of swimming wear power balance bracelet.

Philippe is a miracle of life, its energy is increased tenfold, he wants to prove something to the whole world: there is strength! This could be very long even longer, certainly longer than 24 hours. He will thank you to the weather and currents. I'd be on the boat to watch over him, ready at any moment to put myself into the water to help him and support him in his task. The bet is crazy and if he achieves success will be more beautiful ... a great victory over his handicap and power balance wristband.
