The long distance race, around the baths (2010)

She may be smiling, but she is paddling hard under the water.

A view of the other end of the pool - 365 yards away (this pool was constructed in era of imperial measurement).

Some swimmers start the 'round the baths' race at the other end, making their swim about one kilometre.



Swimmers at the start of the 'round the bathes' race: a splashy squash.


Around the buoy.

Crowd scene.

Race over.  The race caller, being multi-skilled, also removes buoys from the pool.
