    Firstly, thank you all for your donations! It is wonderful to see the total increase!

    A few details about the swim...beautiful weather, a little bit of breeze, some lively currents (particularly in hours 2–4). The tide was helpful though, and meant that I finished the 'circumswimulation' in 05:15:57. This shaved almost 8 minutes off the previous record of 05:23. Yes, I'm as surprised as anybody else! It took some effort, though, going that fast, and I'm still aware that my arms took quite a beating. However, all worth it for a magnificent day out exploring some new water🏊‍♀️
