Hello and welcome to my blog! I started this blog to keep everyone up-to-date on my attempt to swim the English Channel. I am signed up to make my swim somewhere between the 11th and 16th of September 2009, and if I am succesful, I will be the youngest Irish person to have swum the Channel.
I will keep you posted,
Owen.

About Me
- Owen O'Keefe
- Fermoy, Co. Cork, Ireland
- I am sixteen years of age and have been swimming since I was very young, in the River Blackwater in Fermoy with my Grandad. Since the age of about nine, I have been swimming with my local club and really enjoy it. But, in 2006 I became very interested in open-water swimming, that year I competed in the Lee Swim and the Sandycove Island Challenge. I did reasonably well in both events. In 2007 I added the Liffey Swim and became the youngest person to swim from the Speckled Door to Sandycove.
