Speaking shortly after her successful swim, Lottie said: “I have really enjoyed my first season of open water swimming. All the training I have done at Deepings Swimming Club has really paid off. I have taken part in the London Aquathon and Swim Rutland, but this is my best achievement so far. I am looking forward to next season and improving my times even more.”
