Yesterday I swam from Ilfracombe to Swansea.

I had dolphins and seals in the dark so couldn’t see them. Loads of jellyfish getting stung all over! I even got one down my costume I had to fish out 😂 the crew got bored, so they were throwing them and one landed on my back! 

I had wind over tide for 6 HOURS. It felt like being in a washing machine. I threw up several times. I took my goggles off at one feed and had a big cry. It helped. @sian_clement said ‘this too shall pass’ so I shouted ‘but WHEN?!’. 

It settled shortly after and I felt amazing for quite some time. I started to enjoy it, but the swim taught me not to get complacent, as of course, this too shall pass. 

The wind was forecast to go south to north in the Gower and help me in, but it changed its mind and I had a period that felt like Déjà vu from the start. I started to hear dolphins, so I said I could, but they couldn’t see them, cue a concerned conversation that I might be hallucinating 😂 I then had to give it all when my power was failing. I dug deep and got out of the tide and into the bay, but the beach felt like it was never going to come. 

When @sian_clement finally jumped in, I knew they’d definitely given me my last feed. My left arm felt like it was going to snap but I persevered. But I had one last challenge, a rip current, but I realised quickly that was the case and swam sideways to get out of it. When I stood up Sian shouted ‘Go Go Go, you’ve got 9 minutes!’ I thought she meant 9 minutes to get on the beach, celebrate and get back to the boat, but she meant 9 minutes to get under her record! At that point I was just glad I’d finished. Getting the world record is the icing on the cake. I cannot thank Siân enough for being an awesome sportsman to crew for someone and support them knowing that your record might be broken. It takes a special person to do that. 

Thanks also go to:
My husband Alex 
@monsterswims - I cannot recommend them enough! 
@joboltons - my coach and epic channel swimmer herself 
@oxolt - for getting me in shape to be strong enough to ensure that swim 
@emmaredmanmassage - for keeping my body in tip top condition 
And to all those who sent me messages of support by @oxolt_performance

I’m an OXOLT Athlete: Chris Malpass 

Chris joined the OXOLT team in 2024 with a clear goal: to prepare for and perform at his best at the National Masters Swimming Championships.

Since then, we’ve worked together to take his stability, strength, power, and speed to the next level. The result? Improved performance in the pool and a stronger, more resilient athlete outside of it too.

Recently, Chris picked up an injury away from training. But setbacks don’t stop progress. At OXOLT, every programme is tailored to the individual, meaning we can adapt training around injuries, lifestyle demands, and changing circumstances while keeping long-term goals firmly in sight.

It’s not about following a generic plan, it’s about building the right plan for the person in front of us.
