Story

As some of you will know, I’ve fancied giving Open Water swimming a shot for some time, but have never had the courage to brave the freezing cold open water! So, what better an opportunity to support my friend Donna in her challenge and give it a shot! I will be taking part as a member of Donna’s team, swimming a 20k relay on Saturday 22 May 2021, in St Mary’s Loch. This will be a massive challenge for us all, both mentally and physically, I am most definitely not a fan of deep, dark, cold water! But I am delighted to be able to help support Donna with this challenge.
