Sam Crabtree (14) of Thanet Swim Club swam the Henley Classic 2.1km upstream swim in the Thames at 04:30 last Sunday

Sam won the GOLD medal in the Junior category, came third in the Performance wave and 19^th overall in a time of 30mins and 47seconds.  Sam was the first swimmer to finish without a wetsuit, the water temperature was 18 degrees but heavy rain the day before led to a strong cold current making the swim even tougher than usual.  Around 900 swimmers competed, including 15 Elite swimmers and Olympian Adrian Moorehouse who was celebrating his 50th birthday by doing the swim, Sam beat his time by 5 mins!

Toni is excited about the merger and says “thumbs up”

Please be reminded that the clubs Swimathon is being held at Hartsdown on Saturday at 1pm to 3pm.

Open to everyone, please can you return your sponsorship forms to Toni/Lisa this week.

Thank you very much for your support, as every penny raised will be spent on the swimmers.
