Another sunny Spring morning with a sharp north east breeze to accompany the intrepid three into the sea. The tide was further in today, but not so much that Sara would attempt her first tombstone. That will have to wait until next time - weather permitting. Wetsuits now a thing of the past, the three of us headed in. Joan was first under the waves, whereas Sara and myself speculated quite why it was we decided to ditch the wetsuits. I was last in, after much complaining, but after the initial minute of fire, the temperatures all settled down and we were able to do some swimming. Slightly longer than usual this time, 15 minutes in total which proves conditions are improving.
Hopefully the rest of the gang will re-appear during the Spring season. There are records to be broken and personal bests to be achieved.
Time In: 7:12
Time Out: 7:29
Swimmers: Sara, Joan and Paul
Air Temp: 6C
Sea Temp: 8.5C
Here is some video I captured later in the day near Brighton.
It gives you an idea of the conditions of the day.
