Its 0600 and Katy Jones enters the water at Balloch for her longest swim to date. Waved off by hubby into a rather atmospheric Loch.
The water temperature was averaging 15 degrees and the forecast was super favorable for a wind free swim, well at least that is what the weather forecasts said.
Katy took a while to settle in, with a few "what am I doings" and "can I do this" being spun around, but Katy knew she was capable and knew she had done everything to finish this swim.
And just at the right moment her husband and 2 children paddled out to give her that much needed cheer on. Did she complete? Of course she did in a fantastic time of 13 hours and 49 minutes. What an absolute star.
