Thursday saw far better conditions in the Channel, as in no fog to stop swims at their final moments.

Thursday 9th August
Rachel Doyle - Solo - Successful in 16:11.10
Amy Smith (above) - Solo - Successful in 14:24
Roisin Lewis - Solo - Unsuccessful
Gordon Gridley - Solo - Successful in 11:30.30
Charlotte Brynn - Solo - Unsuccessful

Also of note, is the valiant attempt of Mike Brennan to complete a 2-way with Peter Reed of the CSA.  Mike made it to France in 11 hours 7 minutes, and got most of the way back through the SW shipping lane on his way home.  He spent almost 18 hours swimming in the Channel.  A thoroughly decent chap, very much liked by all those training in Dover, and raising money for a great cause.  Click here to donate.
