Congratulations to all the Serpentine swimmers who completed the deceptively tough 26km freshwater swim of the length of Lake Zurich. Organised by the Sri Chinmoy foundation, the race attracts an international field each Augsut.
The best place was third in the relay with Luke Birch and Jamie McAlpine Leny finishing the swim as part of a three swimmer relay in 9 hours, 36 minutes and 3 seconds.
Geraldine Treacher had a great swim in the women's 16-49 year age bracket, finishing fourth in nine hours 50 minutes and 37 seconds.
Dani Lobo, overcame influenza to complete the swim in ten hours 21 minutes and 38 seconds.
Congratulations all.
