Back by public demand, our famous swim trek along the Dorset coast will take place on 7 August 2011. We will start from the car park by The Square and Compass between 9.30 and 10am latest.
If you were unable to join in last year, take a look at some of the wonderful photos of the day.
Bob is changing the route slightly this year. It will be a whole day again, but of course you can dip in and out as you wish.

Our original intention was to hold a 3.8km swim which was open to wetsuit and non-wetsuit competitors. The start was delayed due to weather conditions. With the offshore sea mist only clearing slowly and the safety of swimmers paramount, a decision was made to adapt the course from a triangular one to a 3.6km race parallel to the shoreline.
Swimmers from all over the UK entered the race. We hope to see you all again at one of our future events.
Results, placings, photos and videos have been posted.

Just a few short months ago, Akinwolere could hardly swim a length of a swimming pool but after being put through his paces by coach Dave Hobbs, he has just become the first person to swim across the Palau Trench, one of the deepest parts of the pacific ocean.
He did the swim as part of the BBC’s Big Splash initiative – a UK wide campaign that aims to get the nation swimming.
