Comment | Conditions were very good for first 3-4 hours and Michael Oram expected me to come in approx under 11 hours but conditions suddenly deteriorated
and a lot of the swim was covered in force 4-5. I had a shoulder injury which acted up in the ninth hour of swim and the rough conditions would not have helped this. |
