← Selkie Henley Classic

Swimming the Thames was lovely. The water was warm and clear, the event was well organised and ran smoothly. There were loads of safety kayaks (for nervous swimmers like me). And, even at 3 am, the whole setting was beautiful. 

The only 2 cons were:

1. Price (tight northerner) it was a bit steep for a 1.2 mile swim. 

2. Catering (fat northerner) one sausage butty man for hundreds of swimmers wasn't enough. I left hungry as queue was too big.
