We have been advised that the Solent Swim 2010 will not be going ahead as there will be insufficient safety vessels to support it. Organisers Champion Behaviours will be able to offer an alternative coastal swim on the same day at a similar time: along the coastline from Barton on Sea to Milford on Sea, an open water swim of approximately 3.5 miles. They do have enough safety vessels to enable them to offer this alternative.
Seahorse Swim winners Danni Pryor and Guy Giles enjoyed more accolades in the inaugural 2.25-mile Nokia Thames Swim from Hampton Court Palace to Kingston Bridge.
Guy Giles (45.11) was third home behind Michael Adams (42m 43s) and triathlete Richard Stannard (43.52).
Danni Pryor was first woman finisher and fourth overall (45.34).
“Let’s do something different” exclaimed Club President Ali Budynkiewicz. “Let’s spend a day swimming at some different and unusual locations”.
