Did the race in 2022
Dawlish Swim was my first event. I'm a Vet60+ and I swam the 750m at my comfortable pace. I tested on my tow float when I needed to. The lifeguards check with me that I was okay. When I said yes. They used encouraging words like "younrarly there and You're doing great!"). This encouraged me to keep going. On completing I got lots if well done from lifeguards and Marshalls. I had a photograph taken on exit. Not sure what my face looked like, lol! For my first event I was very reassured by plenty of Staff. The Venue is Beautiful and I was pleased to see some free snacks on offer post swim. For example Bananas, Jelly Beans and Cake! This Gloucestershire Bluetit will be back next year to 🌊😀
