A Tigershark Downunder

Many of you will be aware that Grant Turner has travelled all the way to Australia to continue his training and education in circumstances that will hopefully prove more conducive to fulfilling his long term swimming ambitions.

Grant has sent us some photographs and his daily itinerary to give us an idea of what life is like for a Tigershark downunder.

Grant says:

"Well I have completed three months now and some of you would have seen me back recently for a week prior to the British Championships, it was nice to see you all.

We then flew back to Sydney for the Aussie Age Group Championships. I was a little disappointed with some of the swims, I got a couple of PB's and my last two NQT & Achieved selection for the European Juniors In Spain in July, but felt could have done better, but my coach is very happy and has said “I must have a long term view With training and competition”.

Well here is some more pictures for you, hope You are all training hard and getting them NQT's."
