About Megan:
I'm passionate about my swimming and a friendly easy go lucky girl who enjoys a good laugh. I learnt to swim when I was 4 years old, but never swam competitively until I was about 10 years old at the Shropshire County Championships in 7 events. The following year when I was 11 years old I moved clubs to Wrekin College Swimming Club to fit in with my running training where as I was the Shropshire Schools Cross Country Champion. During this year I swam in all Shropshire County Championship events and broke the 800m freestyle record and was crowned 2nd in the County. I also achieved all the West Midland Regional qualifying times and won 3 medals and was crowned 6th overall in my age group and picked up 7 National Qualifying Times. I then decided to concentrate on my swimming and gave up my running. At Nationals I reached 3 finals and won Silver in the 1500m Freestyle.I moved to the Royal Wolverhampton School in January 2011, and achieved 10 Regional Qualifying Times winning 3 medals and being crowned 7th overall in my age group and 6 National Qualifying Times where I again reached 3 finals.
