“Reaching the finish was an amazing feeling; cheery organisers were there to steady us on the scramble out and hot tubs, photos, medals and goody bags also greeted us. An awesome moment of euphoria.”

For any wild swimmers, we have the Swim Serpentine event – challenge yourself to a half, 1 or 2 mile lap of the lovely Serpentine lake on Saturday September 22^nd. The fundraising target is between £300 and £400, depending on which length you chose.
