My wetsuit is, well, wet - or rather damp still from last night's swim - but there's a rumble going on down at Pickmere, so I'm up early and full of beans. The day is starting georgeous, blue sky, sunshine - so it's roof down and head south to the lake.
We get there just before 10, and meet up with the others - one of the things I like most about this outdoor swimming is the people you meet. They're all so lovely and friendly and encouraging.
Some swim a couple of miles, and some do less, and I probably do least - but I'm in, practicing, and again it doesn't feel cold at all!
Get out and let the sun dry me off, mostly, before getting changed at the car - always get a few funny looks from people who clearly think we're all mad - but we don't care, we've had our fix for another day...
take care
