Pete has continued to swim the channel, since the last post, the waves have gotten bigger, and Pete was getting a bit battered (even though he was finding them fun). last distance measured was 18.2 miles. Pete swapped sdes with the boat to stop the winds and block the waves.

England's gone

The team have lost sight of England. They have travelled 15.5 miles. The next leg of the swim could be very difficult, but he's trained so hard, and should pull through.

Coming up for another feed.

Currently the wind is about 12 mph, and Pete has swam 15 miles. His parents recently just past his Mum and Dad on the ferry.
