Mary won three relay medals and was only narrowly pipped into 4th in couple of her individual events.Fantastic swimming ladies!#omanswimming #nationalchampionship #muscatcommunity #bsmmarlins by @bsmmarlins

“We got in the water, and I completely panicked. I wasn’t confident in swimming. It was a wake-up call moment”In the few years that she has been with us, Hannah has gone from someone not comfortable in the water to, just yesterday, completing the annual 4km Fahal swim.A truly inspiring story, especially for anyone thinking of giving swimming a go! 🏊‍♀️ We are proud to have you Hannah! ⭐ #bsmmarlins #muscatcommunity #everyonecan #daymaniyatislands by @bsmmarlins

A huge thank you to the organisers of the Fahal Island Swim for another incredible event. Congratulations to every swimmer who completed the challenging 4km distance. The conditions were tough, with strong currents adding around 20 minutes to many swimmers’ predicted finish times - making every finish even more impressive! 💪A special shoutout to all of our BSM Marlins students, staff and parents who took part by swimming, kayaking and volunteering throughout the day.#BSMMarlins by @bsmmarlins

You may have heard this story a few weeks ago, about a young boy in Australia, who swam for four hours and at a distance of 4km (two nautical miles) in rough, dark and shark-infested waters to help save his family who had been swept far out to sea during a typical day at the beach. Against all odds, 13 year old Austin Appelbee, did the impossible and managed to rescue his family that night.It just goes to show how important being able to swim is. It’s not just for competitions, or for simple exercise - as great as they are - but this is a real life-saving skill and you never know when you may need it in your life!The BSM Marlins Swim School can help you improve your technique or simply teach you how to swim.The course is open to ALL members of the Muscat community, and you can join via the link in our bio!#bsmmarlins #muscatcommunity #everyonecan #omanswimming #swimschool by @bsmmarlins
