OK, so its only 1.4 miles and I swim between the piers during training all the time but it was great to raise a bit of money for charity and to join the masses in Bournmeouth Bay. Great day all round.

Come and join me next year if you fancy it, otherwise Mr Earthquake and I are going to do it in December non-wetsuit just for fun. Details for the official event can be found at:
