The five-day charity event at Les Quennevais swimming pool, which is due to finish on Sunday, is this year raising money for ten local mental health charities.
By Friday afternoon more than £71,000 had been raised, something which Peter Tabb from event organisers the Lions Club of Jersey said was an ‘incredible amount’.
A record number of 480 teams have signed up to take part in this year’s event.
