Grimsby & Cleethorpes Water Rats

THEY'VE LANDED🎉🎉🎉🎉

How amazing the Backstroke Boys have finally completed swimming the English Channel this morning. Starting very early hours of the morning and completing the challenge in 11hrs 45 mins👏👏👏
MANY CONGRATULATIONS 💥

Its been fantastic to watch your journey going back to the day you all first joined the Grimsby and Cleethorpes Water Rats. Watching you all get acclimatised to cold Water swimming because you all decided to swim the channel without a wetsuit. You've all been amazing and congratulations on completing your journey.
