Holding off on open water for a bit. Need to lose some weight before I get a wetsuit, don't want to have to buy a fat suit and a "normal" sized suit. Did a fair bit of open water swimming in my yoof when I swam for Granta/City-of-Cambridge SC so none of it will be a surprise. Swimming in the River Cam was a joy (not).
Looks like early starts for me on a Tuesday now. Pool opens at 6.30am and so I can fit in an hour swim and be at my desk by 8.30am. Train to work (with 5-a-side stuff) also means I can run home Tuesday and run in Thursday; 12km each way.

Just have to set the alarm for 6am.
