Swimming tips from Duncan Goodhew

Due to his Swimathon efforts Alessio was selected to attend a group swimming lesson with Duncan Goodhew MBE in London during the Half Term break!

He was really excited to attend, meet Duncan and get some tips! A quick chat and photo opportunity with Duncan and a real Olympic gold medal, then it was time for the real fun, the swimming lesson. Duncan gave lots of tips on how to improve breast stroke, and even got in the lane to demonstrate! According to Alessio it was ‘one of the best days ever’, and it has inspired him to think big about his 2024 Swimathon Challenge, as he has already completed the ultimate 30.9 km challenge!

We’re looking forward to seeing what new heights Alessio can achieve with his next Swimathon Challenge!
