Swimming Sport


Heidi Bell-West, our Economics and Business Studies teacher, who is also our Swimming Coach, took part in the Bath Half Marathon at the beginning of the half term holiday and finished the holiday at the British National Masters Swimming Championships in Sheffield.

This is what Heidi says:

"On the 16th October I took part in the Bath Half Marathon. I did it in 2 hours and 4 minutes. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and smiled all the way around. The event from Friday 28th to Sunday 30th October was the National Masters Swimming Championships held in Sheffield. In my age category I gained 1 Gold, 4 Silvers and 3 Bronze medals. These also included many personal best times, and I seem to be getting faster as I get older!  I will know my 2022 World ranking soon but I am currently 5th in the 50m Breaststroke and 8th in the 50m Backstroke for the 50-54 years age group in the World."
