The aftermath of a 3 mile swim

I did it! I swam 3 miles in lake Windermere as part of Great Swim Series and to raise money for charity.

The first half mile was pretty tough as there were so many people in the way, I just couldn't get into a rhythm. It became easier to swim in my own space as the time went on, but I became more tired towards the end. All that matters is that I completed it! It's the first time I've  swam this distance in open water so I am happy :)
