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 ...

Rottnest Channel Swim Escort Boat ... anyone ...?

Well ... I have entered for the Rottnest Channel Swim in Perth in February 2012. A great 19.7km sea swim from Perth to Rottnest Island

I have swum my qualifying time.

I have accommodation. I can take leave from work. I can book my flight.

BUT ... I need an escort boat ... if anyone actually reads this blog of mine ... and has any connections in Perth of any sort ... Please find out if anyone can assist me next year for the swim on the weekend of 25 February.

I would be big time indebted to anyone who can actually help to organise this ... ;-)
