Lough Ree 32k Challenge Join Karen and Serena as they attempt to swim the length of Lough Ree in relay to raise funds for the RNLI's new boathouse at Coosan Point.

Athlone swimmers, Karen Reynolds and Serena Friel are undertaking an ultra swim in support of the construction of a new RNLI Life Boat Station at Coosan Point to service Lough Ree and the Shannon. Serena and Karen have been training for over a year to complete the 32km relay swim from Lanesboro bridge to Athlone town bridge, later this month, with the date to be determined by weather conditions to suit the swim. This is the first time this challenge is being attempted by female swimmers in togs and not wetsuits. While the straight line distance between the 2 bridges is 32km, the swim will be much longer as a result of current, winds and navigation and is expected to take up to take between 12 and 14 hours to complete.
