About Me | |
---|---|
2019 version. 13th Oct 2019 a fall ended my 1st streak, 10 years, 5 months and 4 days (10th May 2009)... prior to this and after regaining my place at the prized and much loved Yorkshireman back in Sept 19 we'd (me and Nothernslowcoach) set down the gauntlet to loose weight and regain quality fitness... 52 week challenge set.. the broken arm chucks a spanner in the works.... however the challenge has been set... onwards, slowly, recover, regain, RACE!

A bit of faffing today as some new members to look after.. all did good.. one braved a paddle a huge achievement for them, the other a dunk and the third (used to sea swimming) a swimble. Proud of them all is no easy task meeting new people and entering water in January. After sorting their experience I had a very nice whoosh down the fast flowing river to meet the others walking back. All in all brilliant swim morning and then plenty time to chat and catch up with my swan chums who also came to say hi

Ultra low tide. Ultra fucking freezing! Think I was tired too so it really showed today. That was plenty for me. Had a nice coffee after and a walk to meet his nibs who was having a strong stomp

I probably have one shocking swim a year where I think why the fuck do I do this? Todays swim was that one. Absolutely freezing. My hands said fuck off straight away and the rest of me was just not that impressed! Very funny. Esp as I slipped on the pebbles on entry so had a fast unplanned plonk on bum entry!! After though me and Holly had a good giggle and that made it all worth while along with the two minute sunrise before the rain
