Congrats Mother T!!

Today I had a wee solo dip at Findhorn - only a short swim-around. Lovely day though, so warmed up nicely afterwards. I have a Rapanui towelling dry robe and I went for a little walk in it to dry off after slipping off my cozzy. Had a chat with someone on the beach who recommended a quiet sandy beach close by through a forest path, where she’s sometimes in with seals.

Nice. I've been in the lake today. 11.7 deg. Hat and boots, no gloves (wetsuit). Took me a long time to get warm but I was doing chatty breaststroking for part of it.

Got something to say?

There didn't seem to be a thread devoted to open water swimming, so I thought I'd start one.
