TEN WEEK PERSONAL CHALLENGE

No one signed up for the 10 Week Challenge.
If anyone is interested, and comes forward, this will be launched again in January.

TIDES THIS WEEK

The current sea temperature is 17oC.  Although the temperature has not dropped since mid June, the prevailing winds this week will make for some rougher sea conditions, and it will feel cold when you leave the water.  If you are open water swimming this week, do wear a bright orange or red hat so that you can be spotted in the dips in-between the waves.

Some of our regular swimmers like to stand about in the water and talk for most of the session - which is fine if that is what you enjoy,.  But how about walking gently through the water while you chat, it will burn up more calories and keep your joints moving. 

It's Official - Swimming IS good for you

We all know that swimming is a healthy way to exercise, no mater what age or shape we are, but did you know about some of the more therapeutic results that some people have experienced when they have taken the plunge.
