Better conditions today. Sun, calmish sea, but a lack of numbers. There seems to be two sets of swimmers right now, and both groups never seem to quite meet :)
So, the four of us head into the water. Ollie and Sara set off to do two full laps, I swim a couple of widths in order to warm up, catching Ollie and Sara on the way through. Ollie and Sara are swimming laps in 12 minutes, which is pretty good for this time of year although some way off the pace set by Hildi and Paul W last year. But there is still time.
A decent current dragging us West, so the back strait was the hardest leg of the swim. A final sprint consisting of 2 widths, which saw Ollie set a commendable 5 minute time.
Back in for some rhubarb cake, and another SSF swim is completed. Where are all the others? It's not that cold anymore?
