Just finished the first UK Open Water Swimathon at Royal Victoria Docks which was amazing. I also got the chance to meet and swim with that great man Duncan Goodhew who inspired me to do the Swimathon over twenty years ago which I did to help me stop smoking. Duncan is the same age as me and also used to swim in Beckenham so I expect we were in the same local pool as kids - he just went on to find fame whilst I found cider instead. Now at least we were able to share the same swimming event. What would you rather be doing on a Sunday morning? Achieving something amazing and having great fun or laying in bed with a hangover and dreading the day ahead.
