It has been another hot and sunny day so I was looking forward to my Thursday evening training dip in Lake Windermere!
What I don't understand is despite it being a fantastic day the lake was very choppy! How does that work?
I was expecting clear, calm and warm waters! It was warm at 18C but certainly not calm however surprisingly - I was!
This was my 6th lake swim and with each week that passes I get more confident and tonight it barely registered I was in Open Water except for the slap in the face every time I breathed to the left! But what a fantastic place to swim!
I took it fairly easy and only did 0.65 mile but my arms are feeling extremely tired again! I think I might have to start doing some arm strengthening exercises if I am going to get stronger at this Open Water Lark!
