Worcester Counties – Long Distance

Three young swimmers from Pershore travelled to Hereford on Sunday for the last weekend of the Worcester County Championships.

Josh Sharratt, Chris Vizard and Isobel Cumming had qualified for the gruelling 800m freestyle, with the trio of swimmers putting in brave performances on the day.

Sharratt had a fantastic swim in the boys 12 year old 800m free event, producing a massive 28 second personal best to snatch bronze in 11.11.71 and his first county medal.  Team mate Vizard wasn’t too far behind Sharratt, clocking 11.16.83 which was a 20 second pb.

In the girls event, Cumming went for Pershore in the 11 year old 800m event and was up against strong competition. Cumming battled hard to produce a time of 12.12.93 and finished fifth.
