Dave's inspiring story

Read about how this competitor took on the Ocean Swim!

I have never really done any serious swimming in my life - for the last couple of years I thought swimming the Harbour Crossing was a challenge I should have a crack at one day. Just over 2 weeks ago I decided that this would be the year & began training. Probably not the most sensible training lead time for a non-swimmer - only 10 training swims in total - however I was determined not to be one of those being fished out of the drink on race day! On event day I was 1269th out of 1271 finishers but my race was won when I crossed the finish line, the time was irrelevent. Thanks Quantum, Sovereign & all involved for allowing me to have a crack and achieve my goal.
