Cold Water Swim Champs rehearsal


Kate and I went down to the lido to take part in a dry run of the championships as swimmers. The organisers needed to work out the logistics of how the swimmers get ready to ensure a smooth transition between races. We were randomly allocated races and relay teams, but it was still a little competitive. Kate did her first races without gloves or boots and was fine afterwards; so she's now assured that she'll be ok on the day.

Also met Tricky in the sauna and we decided to also practise our endurance swim. Reader I swam the distance, minus 30m, and was very chilled afterwards. So am now confident that I'll be fine on the day. And even enjoy it.
