First swim of the summer! Oh dear...
This was with Lucy, Em and Nay. Didn't go so well. We had to swim from Swanpool to Pendennis point in Falmouth. Flip it was cold! Len was bobbing round in his boat whilst we screamed and swore for around half an hour before we got in. Falmouth is the coldest water to swim in! So we almost got to Pendennis boat before we all started to get too cold. Had trouble breathing, our shoulders and elbows seized up which wasn't so good. We got hauled into Len's boat and spent the next hour tacking to return to exactly the same point haha! It was so ridicuously cold, so we got dropped off at Gylly and ran round to Swanpool.
This was really demoralizing for the beginning of the summer and a bit of a schock to be honest. We hadn't done much training within the past couple of months what with exams, Slovenia and...the sun haha. We really need to get our act together.
