1st Winter Swim

I did my first training session for the channel today. Just 2k. It was 13 degrees in the water and 13 degrees out. I've got to get used to that. No wetsuit allowed. Boy it was cold getting in. Once in I have to say my body conditioned to it quite quickly.
Very calm conditions which was good. Easier swimming out than it was swimming back.
So cold when I got out though. I couldn't wait to get home and jump in the bath.
Ive sat by the log fire this evening watching a DVD.
Feel slightly waterlogged as I spent 3 Hours in the water teaching this morning too. Money comes in handy though.

I've been asked to put my justgiving sponsor link on here. I hope I've done this right. Many, many thanks X
