    Thank you so much for all the kind words. This swim was not an easy one for me and Mikee did a wonderful job representing the swim. Thank you Mikee for the beautiful video.

  • Well done everybody involved - thanks Monello and Billy for the send . Love the music

  • Congratulations. A solid effort, and you dealt with worsening conditions well. From someone who knows how tough it is to get your head around turning around and swimming into the night, I know that no matter what you may be thinking now...you'll be back. It's an addiction with no cure.

    Great job.

  • I admire people that do this... it's really something that takes a lot of dedication and focus. LOL nice hat and that guy's flower bikini!!

    greets

    ender

  • you know if you really want to do this and you feel you are a good swimmer i can advise you..

    Firstly a lot of the swims are relays with 4 or so swimmers...

    they each swim in turn for exactly one hour in strict rotation!! you could try that to start with, but Alex.... a solo swim is something else..

    More people have climbed Everest than have swum the channel...

    if you really are interested contact me

    mikee

    ;-}~

    mikee

    ;-}~

    Jan and Susan ♥

    is it true that you two are planning a relay swim?

    lol

    don't forget to share this out, the swimmers deserve all the kudos they can get

    mikee

    ;-}~

  • Good idea to put in the tidbits of knowledge to help drive home what a grueling feat this is.  Those last couple of miles must feel like trying to swim thru thick porridge.

  • hi ben..

    glad you enjoyed it mate..

    fancy a swim?

    mikee

    ;-}~

  • Wow I feel tired watching that :)

    Well done Michelle that was a great swim. Brilliant video and music :)

    5*****

    lol

    mikee

    ;-}~

  • I admire this woman's endurance. The music in the background is the perfect back-drop!

  • thank you Jasmine..

    ;-}~

  • You can get a ferry you know....Congratulations. That must take real dedication! The type I hope I never have. An amazing achievement!! Well done. Did anyone give her a lift back.... It is France after all.... Andy

  • actually Andy i always point out to the swimmers there is a ferry and a tunnel..

    but some people just don't listen

    lol

    mikee

    ;-}~

  • Wow what an accomplishment by Michelle. Great video Mikee, looks like all had a good time on the boat. I have a hard time making it to the other side of the jacuzzi, especially with a glass of merlot in my hand. Thanks for sharing and using my music, I knew this long instrumental would find a home somewhere. Mark

  • Mark great music...

    such a long piece mate..

    it started in England and finished in France..

    not many people can play for that long...

    lol

    thank you mate..

    share this one out..

    my swimmers deserve all the views and kudos they can get..

    mikee

    ;-}~

  • Hey that's right, I played this song for what like over 16 hours or more, man my fingers are really sore...LOL! I think I'll take a dip in the pool, swim a lap or maybe a half a lap and then go hit the merlot.

  • 60 strokes a minute! And that's not taking into account the weather conditions;the treachorous undercurrents;the cold.

    This lady should be proud of what she achieved.Swimming the English Channel is no mean feat.The music was beautiful too.Loved the info parts you gave.Fab video.

  • Thanks Tuks..

    glad you enjoyed it

    ;-}~

  • Thank you for the beautiful music as the back drop for the video. I love the mood that it provides to the swim. What an amazing talent.

  • You're very welcome Michelle with a last name that is very similar to my own. You are the true talent in this wonderful video as this feat is seldom accomplished by even those with most sincere aspirations. I was humbled when Mikee chose my instrumental to be the backdrop for you truly remarkable achievement. Wishing you much success with your future endeavors, but most of all sincere peace in knowing your accomplishments. Mark

  • Fair play to her for persevering in that fog. Well done ALL of you

  • As I'm one of your sic-est friends maybe I could hum a tune for the next one. Looks like a nice day out :)

  • thanks mate..

    a good day out..

    loads of swims this year so maybe i'll take you up on that offer..

    mikee

    ;-}~

  • Dear God,

    She did well to do one way.

    I will swim if I have to BUT only if I have to.

    Lovely video Mikee.x.

  • you might have to...

    didn't Mark do well with the music..

    and Michelle is a great swimmer

    xx

  • Always enjoy these vid's Mikee! Great stuff! Just wonder if you ever tell em' to 'get on with it, it's bloody cold on this boat! Can't you go faster? lol. How super fit these people must be! Inspiring stuff mate! Most enjoyed! Cheers!

  • Thanks Ed...

    I know you enjoy these vids..

    channel swimming is best enjoyed from a distance holding a cold one..

    Mikee

  • I will mate. Bloody hard to get view's these days!

  • the best view is always though the bottom of a glass...
