About Event
A challenging and equally iconic swim it was. The challenge was to cover a certain distance and a certain time, and if not completed, the swim had to be terminated because the tide would change, and no chance of finishing the swim. As we got close to Mumbai, sea traffic was a bit of an issue. The oil wells and huge ships were everywhere, and had to lookout for routes among them with the race against the currents.
This event was 2nd among the 4 new routes I swam in Mumbai. This event was again challenging as this was a new route to swim in so, no guidance was available. But, we did some research of ours too, we surveyed to know the working of water currents and weather at a certain point of time.
