Third day in a row that the sea has been flat, calm and a pleasure to be in. Temperature still in the mid 15’s and air temperature only 13 degrees, sky blue/gray and wind nonexistent. Had the pleasure of Tim Piatt swimming with me today, training for his triathlon at the weekend ; his second time in the sea and I took him all the way out to the helter skelter; the boy did good.
Tomorrow, assuming the conditions are good, I’ll swim to the West Pier and back; need to get a couple of miles in whilst the seas are flat. Will aim to do a bigger one at the weekend as well; perhaps lagoon to pier, about 4 miles. Tonight after work I’m at the gym with Ross for an hour and then gonna do a 10k run as well.
A side note – kids slept in their own beds ALL night for the last 2 nights. Praying that they will do it again for a third in a row!!
