Last night was the regular Friday night swim for Karl’s daughter. An hour of play before her lesson and then some serious swimming whilst she has her class.
The fun time was great - she can happily dive underwater now and doesn’t seem to have the fear which is something that is important for...

Friends
Friday night swim
Is that the time already?
A short, but relatively early run this morning with Shana. When the alarm clock went off, I did NOT want to get out of bed today - despite getting an early-ish night in yesterday.
Shana’s obviously starting to get a lot fitter - we kept up a pace of about nine minute miles, while keeping...

Course Spotting For Warwick Tri
After the drive down to Tall Friend’s house (grotty traffic), I arrived just after 2pm. So after the usual ‘Hellos’ and unloading the car, we went for a walk around the park for ice creams & to exercise Tall Friend’s dogs (bouncy, bouncy creatures). It was one of those sunny but not hot days,...
