44 minutes and 3 seconds.

Blog 3260: LOST SWIMZI ONESIE
Holly Cooke has lost her Swimzi Onesie at some time over the last 3 weeks. Could you all check to see if anyone has picked this up from either a recent gala or from the changing rooms during training.
It is an age 13 Onesie and has the name Holly Cooke written on the inside label in Sharpie pen. It may also have a portable phone charger in one of the pockets.
Obviously the Onesies are quite expensive so we would be grateful if you would do a double check of all of your swimmers bags. If anyone has found this please could they let me know at swimsecretary@longeatonswimmingclub.org.uk or let Michelle Cooke know directly.
