Great North swim in Windemere

Sorry it has been a while since I last posted a blog - things have been hectic since I got back

I swam at the Great North swim in Windemere 13th September 2008, a one mile swim (1600m) in 15.2 degrees BRRRRRRRR!!!!
I finished 2nd just behind Cassie Patten. It was a really great event all the family were there and many of them swam
My dad swam in a time of 53 minutes finishing 1632nd - not bad for a 54 year old!
My Brother Mark did it in 30 minutes finishing 310th over all!
My sister's boyfriend Phil swam a time of 38 minutes he finished 924th over all - very good considering it was his first ever swim!!
last but not least my sister Janine swam an amazing time of 26 minutes she was very close to the lead pack in her race!! Well done Janine, she finished 106th overall!!
Well done guys you did amazing!!!

Next year we hope to see more people swimming the Great North Challenge.
