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 ...

Sudan ... why art thee so difficult

Feeling a lot more settled and comfortable today. Slept well, ate well and found my bearings a little. After running around all day yesterday organising everything for my Sudan Visa - I made an assault on the Sudan Embassy early this morning ... CLOSED FOR THE DAY!

aagghh!!

We simply had a good laugh ... and I'll just have to get another taxi into town tomorrow ... again.

Just met up with Billy and Christy (mates riding by horse back thru Africa) and tagging along with Sean - also doing the Tour.

Well that is all for now ... thanks for the pictures (farewell at the airport) and comments/e-mails from friends.
