Wayne is well
underway now, having completed his first hour in the water.
Conditions are very
good out there - calm waters and not too much wind.
Wayne has had 2
feeds and is swimming very strong at the moment. I have asked the boat to
update us on his stroke rate, as this becomes very interesting to observe as he
gets more tired and needs to dig deep to keep the pace going against the
current.
There is also a
Google Map going as we speak with pins to track his progress. You can find it
here: http://goo.gl/maps/PnkCW. The blue pins
indicate gps coordinates that we receive from the boat every 30 minutes.
This just in from
the boat:
"Slight swell now. Progress is good. The first part of this swim was always going to be the most challenging and it could not have gone better. So far so good now as the tide slackens we need to make good progress across the channel."
Keep you posted as
we get more in!
