Deja Vu Channel Swim
 
Zoggs have very kindly offered to sponsor us for the swim by providing us with everything we need for the longs hours we are going to have to spend in the water building up to the channel crossing. So last Saturday we all made our way over to The Marist School Pool in Ascot to take part in a photo shoot to say thank you.

We all arrived at the pool around 5.30 and were greeted by Claire (Publicity manager) with a kit bag full of goodies from Zoggs. When we opened our bags it was like Christmas had come early! Zoggs have provided us with their new endurance costumes which are fantastic at withstanding chlorine and should last us through all our hours in the water. They have also given us hats, goggles, water bottles, towels and even a very cool bag to store it all in!

So once deciding from the selection what colour costume, hat and goggles we were all going to wear for the shoot we all descended on poolside ready to go. We started off with some group underwater shoots which sounded very easy, all we had to do was submerge underneath the water, look at the camera and smile, simple right? Well after multiple attempts Simon (the photographer) was finally happy with the shots and we then spent some time doing some above water photos which again involved a lot of laughter.
 A very enjoyable experience and we are all incredibly pleased with our new costumes which I’m pretty sure all of us have spent a few ours in since the shoot! A big thanks again to David from zoggs for so generously supplying us all with training kit and to Claire and Simon for their time and patience. Please check out the photos and look out for the finished article in magazines!
