Russel Pink took part in the British Gas Great North Swim at Lake Windermere on Sunday.
Setting the pace, elite swimmers from around the globe including Jo Jackson, were joined by sporting celebrities, Secretary of State for Health, Andy Burnham MP, GMTV’s resident GP, Dr Hilary Jones, EastEnders’ Phil Mitchell actor Steve McFadden and former 5000m Olympic silver medallist, Sonia O’Sullivan, who travelled to the stunning Lake District National Park shoreline to take part along with a staggering 6000 others!
Russel finished the 1 mile course in water temperatures of 12 degrees ( who said Loughborough was cold!) in a time of 27.07 mins coming in 292nd place overall.
