Paul Leonard - Channel Solo Swimmer!

On Thursday 15th September Paul Leonard, masters swimmer, became a solo channel swimmer.
Congratulations Paul! 12 hrs 39 Minutes of continuous swimming & nearly 55km later you’ve done it!
This achievement is truly fantastic.
Not many see the work that’s gone into this- Paul has been completing his normal sessions 5-6.30am with us masters & then continuing on in the lane swim to complete 10km sessions & THEN training again in the evening- continuously swimming 50-60km worth of training every week this year as well as working full time. For Dan, Nickie and myself you’ve been an absolute honour to coach and we can’t wait to see what’s next!
If anyone feels inspired or brave enough to take on this crazy challenge I’m sure Paul would be happy to chat with you ☺️
Here’s his gps tracking and pacing and some of his companions on the way.
Thanks
Molly
