What a glorious weekend for sea swimming. Been down in Folkestone as a bunch of mates were doing their qualifying swims for their Channel crossings, they managed up to 6hrs with wetsuit and 3hrs without, all pretty impressive.
I've got intercostal tears, so could just bob about in the water hoping the temperature would help the healing. It's up to 11 degrees, so the first time since last summer you could actually sit and enjoy the water rather than endure it.
