Stay focused on your end goal and give it everything you’ve got

The main event was sold out within days of opening and we have been asked by swimmers to host a small group on Sunday 3rd November, predominately for those who cannot swim on Saturdays in accordance with their faith.

This is a very small group and has already been partially filled, should you wish to join please send me an email to [email protected]

Don’t wait until you have achieved your goal to be proud of yourself
Be proud of yourself as you reach all the milestones
Success doesn’t come from doing something occasionally but rather consistently
Celebrate the small victories

Achieving your goals should not be focused around comparing yourself to others but rather about competing against yourself

You will always be your greatest competitor, focus on that and push beyond your own expectations by striving for results you never thought were possible

The mist teaches us to embrace the unknown without fear
Stay focused on your end goal
Never stop believing in yourself
Just keep swimming
