![]() I tried to keep Jenny happy for the first few swims with paddles and now my arms hurt so much… But Jenny did all of the swim work and thought that I was going to do the swim work. Heather: I chose not really to swim with paddles. Jenny: Shall we have another pool buoy and where are the paddles? ![]() And there were quite a few ‘Oh’s.’ weren’t there… What were your first impressions? Then I met Jenny 2 days ago for the very first time out here. The problem being she sold me as a strong swimmer…which I am in theory in a swimming pool but not when it comes to open water swimming with paddles. Literally like a dating thing! So a friend sold me to jenny as we know Jenny had a place. Intrigued by their union as a team, we were keen to ask them how they met and what it was like to do the race together. Despite not training with one another previous to the race, they completed the race in an epic time of 9:50:16.

How will you be celebrating your incredible achievement?įirst of all, they have a great buffet for dinner tonight, so we will make use of that. And, we obviously spent less time on the course, so that gives us more options for later on today. Markus: The conditions were perfect and I think we’ve pretty much had a rough plan and we roughly stuck to it. You’ve raced this course several times before, how did today compare to previous races? We managed to be steady and I think that’s what helped us get a good time. Also, we kept going all the time, even in the long run. But I think the outcome really pleased us, we actually couldn’t ask for more today.Īn epic race of sub 9 hours, what were your race highlights?įabian: We’re very pleased that we did sub 9 hours. ![]() ![]() Markus: Tired right now but happy, it was a long day.
