Workout complete?! More like Challenge Complete!

In October I posted my first swim for our seaswimmers club Winter Blues Challenge: The challenge was at least twice a month swim at least 100 meters in the sea, with or without wetsuits.

Well, today I “proudly present” my reward: a lovely, super bright (apparently lollipop lady yellow) tshirt to show that I finished the challenge!!! I just love those words on the tshirt:

WINTER SEA SWIMMER.....

First swim was in October with a sea temperature of 16.9 degrees

Last swim was in March with a sea temperature of 7.9 degrees!

At the start I hoped that I would manage quite a few swims without having to get into a wetsuit. I didn’t actually think I would manage the WHOLE challenge without a wetsuit! Really pretty chuffed about that! And as one lady (who goes in virtually every day at 6 o’clock in the morning 😱🙃) said: I knew you would like it as soon as I saw you. Well, I can truly say I am totally addicted to winter sea swimming! I love the exhilaration of getting in that cold water, but especially the feeling of total satisfaction you get afterwards! What a brilliant “sport”.
