It was still a task to get in the water! Em, Nay and I (Lucy) swam a two mile jaunt from Swanpool beach, round a couple headlands to Maenporth beach....Em and Nay had previously already swan Maenporth to Swanpool before my late arrival....
It was very successful! All of us started in good direction, towards the headland, only to later find each of us spread over a good 100m or so! Whilst all this was happening, Len and Didge were happily rowing beside us in the boat having a relaxing drink! But once we reached the first headland we had a good pace going and were booming along. The coldness didn't hit so bad (especially after I'd been in Cyprus for a few weeks) as we thought either. Coming around the second and final headland, Maenporth beach was in sight- and we were swimming towards all the tiny looking people. Still keeping up the pace, Len looked out for us and helped us with direction on occasion! Although the zig-zagging has definitely decreased.
Upon reaching the beach we were pretty tired but all pleased with our swim! Although Em and Nay had done twice what I had just done!
Some chafing means more application of Vaseline next time!
Less then a month now....
Love Lucy, on behalf of L.E.N.S. Team. Xxxx
P.S. Sarah was ill this week but hopefully will make her reappearance at next week's swim!
