In total the teams swam 3485 lengths, which is the equivalent of about
87 Kilometres or about the distance from The Pods to East Midlands Airport.
Without doubt the 2 teams which swam more than anyone else were “Henry Ulbeto” and “Who Planted Those Trees?” With 177 lengths and 170 lengths respectively. But . . . Henry Ulbeto had more swimmers in their team, meaning that the last 5 minutes, when every member could swim, would have given them an advantage which was probably more than 7 lengths. We should wait and see whether or not the judges declare it a draw!
