Helen was our sole intrepid traveller to venture to Aberdeen for this long course event. In Helen's own words:
"I competed in the 50, 100 and 200 breaststroke, this is the first time at Nationals and had a great time. It was amazing to learn so much and be inspired by so many fast swimmers.
I am very grateful to our friends at Barnet Copthall who adopted me for the weekend and invited me out for several good meals.
Here are my times : now looking at Europeans and Worlds in 2027!
