Some things aren't meant to be, and today I wasn't meant to cross the channel.
Due to tide and sea conditions that were out of my ability range, I was struggling to maintain forward momentum. I only managed less than half a mile in the 3rd hour.

The extra effort caused a should strain that rapidly got worse and meant that I had to call the swim off.
There was nothing I could do. It wasn't what I wanted or planned, but part of the resilience it takes to complete this triathlon, is taking every challenge on the chin.

Despite this set back, I will be continuing onto the next stage and making my way to Land's End, ready to start cycling towards John O'Groats on the 28th.
