Hi,Today reality has hit hard as last night I sat in front of my PC watching the blog updates of Thomas Beavers Arch to Arch Challenge as he pounded on for 21hrs in order to successfully cross the channel. Well done Tom awesome swim. Be is now on his bike heading for Paris.
I guess there is nothing new to the challenge I have discovered overnight but I am realising more and more the enormity of the challenge and how much of a beast that stretch of water can be. Hopefully this will help me sleep better and rest up before next weekend and maybe not. Both ways there’s nowhere to hide and I’m feeling ready!
The plan is to get in one last sea swim at night; the swim
will start at about 3am. Then keep to my 3 x 60-90min runs a week and a few more swims too along with one last bike test after Prologue Bikes have done the final service at the weekend.
It’s fair to say I’m now nervously excited!!
Cheers
Nino

Hi Bags,
I'm sure your swim will go fine.
I can't believe your swimming the Channel god you have come along way from when we use to swim at the Water Skiing pond off the A40.
It always makes me smile when I think of those early morning swims.
Best of luck mate keep those eyes open.
Mark.
