English Channel Relay team forego chance of lobster thermidor to swim to France

Congratulations team No Chlorine

Congratulations to the relay team of Elina Grigoriu, Arabella Buck, Geraldine Treacher, Emily Chong, Joanna Dale and Robert Fisher who swam across the English Channel on Saturday 4 and Sunday 5 October. It was tough on Natasha Dyer who had trained all summer but weather and work meant that Natasha was unable to join in the successful swim. 

Their story includes a battle with a lobster pot.

The team reached France in just four minutes over fifteen hours.
