Boris Mavra swims the Channel again

Boris was a last minute swimmer in a relay team across the Channel a week ago, and has quickly backed up that success with a solo swim in 11 hours 59 minutes and 37 seconds. He landed a couple of miles south of Cap Gris Nez.

AWESOME effort.

In 2009, Boris first swam the Channel, reaching Sangatte beach in France in 14:24.
The conditions were shocking for his first solo swim where Boris had to contend with massive swell and high winds. His 2009 success was the 1,431st solo crossing by a swimmer following English Channel rules.

Congratulations to Boris from all your friends at Serpentine SC
