14 year old Pretoria swimmer, Henre Louw, was untouchable at this year’s Marina Mile swimming festival at Marina Martinique winning both the double mile and mile swimming events with over 200 swimmers taking part.
Louw won the double mile swim in a very fast time of 38 minutes with Stellenbosch teenager Stephano Roodt in second place and PE’s Brandon Chapman in 3rd place whilst fellow Pretorian Duné Coetzee won the ladies double mile from Hannah Haswell and Ashleigh Green.
The feature event of the morning was the Mile race which Louw won in a time of 18min 14sec ahead of Port Elizabeth swimmer Cullen Biddulph and East London’s Deshaan Pillay with St Francis Bay swimmer Amica De Jager winning the ladies Mile from Coetzee and Haswell.
