Follow my complete journey as I prepare and compete in one of my toughest challenges yet...the 2014 Perth to Rottnest Island Channel swim.

3 Events in 3 Days - Monday

Done...!
Onto Penrith early in the morning to compete in the 5km flat water swim.

After a turbulent start amongst 300 other swimmers i managed to get some clear water at about 500m. The next 3 km was fantastic and i managed to myself into a very nice stroke pattern and rate. After a quick drink and feed it was into the second half. After two events in the previous two days I felt fantastic and did the lap easy; could have easily done the whole thing again!

I finished in 1 hour 35 minutes which was an average swim and 8 minutes above where i need to be this time next year!
