Pamela's Kessock Ferry Swim 2023

Pamela Graham is raising money for Àban

My story

I love swimming. I love a challenge. I need to get fitter than I am. So I've decided to swim the Kessock Ferry Swim this year from South Kessock to North Kessock and back. When my family lived in Munlochy in the 1950s I doubt if we knew that people were swimming this crossing every year. We went across on the ferry to Inverness and back on a regular basis and I remember seeing Porpoises swimming by. Now the swimming challenge is back and I am going to do it. The sponsorship is to help local charities so it is a good cause.

My updates

I did it!

Getting closer to the day! 10 days left for training, resting and working out what to eat before we go on the 25th June at 5pm. Yesterday I swam the full distance so I know I can do it within the hour. Hoping for good conditions ( Hmmm - maybe shouldn't have mentioned that).

Only 4 weeks to go!! I've got the distance marked out at Rosemarkie Beach for practice so just need to keep going to get there in one.

OK, I'm committed to this. I have been training for the past couple of months. I've had some coaching in how to swim the crawl more efficiently and building up my distance. Onwards!
