Dave started the 38 kilometre swim at 09.00 hrs local time and has already done 6 km! The pool is 30 degrees which is too warm for a long distance event so he will have to maintain liquid and gel intake at a higher level than planned. Presently swimming at a rate of 17mins 40 secs per 1000 km. I’ll leave you to work out how long it should take him if he keeps up that rate!
Thanks for all your messages of support! Keep them coming as Dave really appreciates them.
keep it up Dave we’re all rooting for you back home!
I am looking for updates on my friend Kale who is doing the Quin… no results up on the multisport website yet. Stumbled across this. Good luck Dave! Every ultra athlete is an inspiration.
Mike Searle mentioned your exploit this week. Clearly a bonkers undertaking! Enjoy
