Kalamata, Greece — London Freediving instructor Mark Harris has achieved a UK freediving record with a 70 meter free immersion (FIM) dive on the first day of competition at the 3rd Mediterranean Freediving World Cup. 70 meters had in the past proved elusive. However, “a change in my training and preparation seemed to unlock the door”, explains Mark “and with the smooth organisation of the competition in Kalamata, everything just fell into place.” In the context of how much of his training time Mark has been giving to building the club recently it’s even easier to feel happy about his achievement.
“The magic is definitely back” for Mark who the next day followed this performance with a dive of 70 m constant weight (CW) rocking it old school with his trusty bi-fins. “Needless to say, I did find I had some leg fatigue 
” remarks Mark; I think thats pretty understandable!
