My name is Anna Mc Carthy . I’m 57 years of age , married to Phil with 2 children -Dylan , 21 and Clíodhna , 16.
I ‘ve been an open water swimmer for 10 years and have competed in many events both in Dublin and around the country . I have also participated in many charity swims .
I have completed 2 ice kilometers and 1 ice mile

On the 2 Nd August this year , our team of three successfully completed a crossing of the English Channel in a time of 14 hours and 42 minutes . We swam for a total of 5 hours each ;
exhausting but eventually fun.
I look forward to upcoming challenge and to the success of the charity .
