    Swim History Before SwimTrek

    I have been sea swimming for 30 years when I first moved to Cornwall. I have participated in numerous triathlons and swim runs mainly in and around the UK. I regularly swim in the sea, all year round whether for pleasure along the Cornish coastline, training during RNLI beach lifeguard days or rescuing bathers caught in rips!

    Most Memorable Swim

    Swimming in the sea in Indonesia just off Nusa Lembongan

    Top Swimming Tip

    Float to live. If ever you find yourself in difficulty float on your back, relax, conserve energy and signal for help.

    Interesting Fact About You

    I have swam with dolphins off the coast of the North coast of Cornwall.
