2012 English Channel Swim

7 - 14 September 2012



After having cycled through Africa, completed 5 Ironman Triathlons, run the Comrades Ultra Marathon, Climbed Kili ... I have decided to take on a slightly tougher option ...



... 34km of cold, open water swimming ... leaving the coast of the eternal "wanna-be" soccer nation, over to the "frogs" on the other side ...

Nubian Desert

Eric with a flat tyre ... number two in ten minutes ... Patrick watches and learns
The same ... corrugation and sand ... over and over again
Lekker morning ride ...
Even deserts have hills
Another common sight ... numerous parallel lanes thru the desert ... one of them has to be better ... but which one???
