Eddystone Lighthouse back to Plymouth Hoe 13.7-mile open-water swim

After completing a relay swim across the English Channel last year Lyn is back in the water, along with friends Claire, Simon, she has decided to take on an even tougher challenge—swimming from the Eddystone Lighthouse back to Plymouth Hoe. This 13.7-mile open-water swim will push the group to their limits, testing endurance and resilience against unpredictable conditions. They may even be the first relay team to complete this swim in skins (no wetsuits!), making it an even bigger challenge. So, the training—especially the cold-water acclimatisation—begins! They have decided to use this challenge to support a cause that means a lot to them and, especially, Lyn's fiancé Tony - My Name’5 Doddie Foundation.
