Swim to Old Harry


So far my training has involved swimming up and down along the shores of Swanage Bay.

Today for the first time I ventured further with John for back up in our boat, I swam from the beach in Swanage (just under the Grand Hotel) to Old Harry. The tide was with us so it was surprisingly easy and alot of fun.

We worked out that the easiest way to go was for me to swim about 2 or 3 metres from the side of the boat and use that as my reference point. This saves me lifting my head out of the water so makes life alot easier than when swimming without an accompanying boat.

Maybe I can get all the way to Bournemouth!
