Please may I be excused from class today I want to swim to France

Felicity Challinor completed her second English Channel Relay swim on Friday 5 September in 13 hours and five minutes.

Success writes Deborah Challinor. Although not without its challenges. Felicity swam brilliantly and was only sick once. It was a bit choppy all the way. Philip (Dad) mobilised the team well. All in all a great day at sea and better than a day at school.

Felicity only went back to boarding school on Wednesday and shortly after, Paul Foreman called and said her team "In the Swim" can go; having not been able to go during their August window due to a week of bad weather. So Felicity has dashed out of school for Dover. 
This time she swam for Diabetes UK as her Aunt struggles with Type 1 and her Grandmother suffers from Type 2
You can follow her progress by selecting the boat Optimist on theCS+PF tracker.
