Or stick to running if time is an issue.

my wetsuit is coming to the Scillies in August, though I usually swim in the sea without it

toks, this time 18 months ago my level of swimming was "probably won't drown in a pool". I did my first Olympic distance triathlon last weekend and I was only able to do it because I invested in some 1 2 1 and small group swimming lessons. I know there's a cost to that but it's probably the only way to go.

I usually swim skins in Swanage every year but we are there in July/August, when the water temp is pleasantly cool. I'm hoping to do some swimming in the Scillies next week but it will be skins so maybe still too cold ans anyway the weather forecast isnt great

I swam skins yesterday at 8.30pm and it was lovely. It's a heatwave, though.

When you say skins, that's not the same as skinny's is it ? 'cos that's a whole different thread

In deference to the general public, no I don't mean skinny dipping
