He’s Only Gone and Dunn it Again!

  • March 9, 2026

Hatfield Swimming Club legend, Chris Dunn, had a busy weekend in Wales competing in the Swansea Long Course Master’s Meet over the first weekend in March. He swam nine races over the two days of competition for a total of 3650m worth of racing. That’s a lot for anyone regardless of age!

Highlights were his 200 IM where he swam 3:27.91 and 400 IM in which he stopped the clock at 7:25.14. Both of these swims were new British records in the 80-84 year old age group.

Chris also rewrote the record books in the 800m and 1500m free where he not only set new British records but European records too! His new 800m record is now 11:53.75 and the 1500m is 20.03.58.

These new records bring Chris’ total record haul for his age to 10 British, 4 European and 2 World records! Well done Chris on your amazing results!
