A huge thank you to Gartan Open Water Swimmers for hosting another fantastic Inch Mile! ๐๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ
Thirteen hardy LTC swimmers took the plunge off the ferry for the mile-long crossing of Lough Swilly, from Inch Island back to Rathmullan.
Conditions were challenging with metre-high white-tops, but an outgoing tide and an opposing westerly wind kept the swim lines on target, showing the organisers knew what they were talking about! ๐ช
A massive thank you to the outstanding safety crew for keeping a watchful eye on everyone throughout, particularly looking after one of our own who had a run-in with the dreaded lionโs mane. huge congratulations to all 13 of our swimmers. You should be very proud! ๐
Well done Lisa McGarrity, Ana Paula Corradini Boreland ๐ชผ, Chun Yee Gillespie, Conor, Madalina McCrea, Jennifer Greene, .kelly, , Sarah Kee, Kathy Li, , Gail Pedlow, & who bagged 2nd place on the podium! ๐๐
