Swimming.

[Brightonblue]

Hi.
In me 50's and decided to take up sea swimming during lockdown and then in turn pool swimming.
I've become a little addicted to cold water now! Was in the channel this morning and felt brilliant afterwards
Any one on here do the same ?

Good on you, but aren't you concerned about the deadliness pumped raw into the water?

 

[heatmeiser]

It's not for me

Love Swimming, but I had to knock it on the head once it got cold, the pool I used to use was always minus 5000 and I can not handle the cold.

Will take it back up when it warms up.

And there I was thinking the wilderness, isolation and downright chill of history for being a blue was as cold as things could get...

Too easy.

I was a lifeguard for 4 years …. Had to swim a mile in the pool every week… hated swimming ever since

I could swim to save my life but I'd never do it for pleasure - not after the excruciating swimming lessons we had to endure as kids.
Afternoons spent shivering at the edge of vast Victorian baths being harangued by a psycho PT instructor was quite enough thank you!

I would swim more often but don't like getting my hair wet, don't want anyone seeing me look like a drounded rat.

I started swimming regularly after my parents died, and it helped me with my grief and gave me a six pack.

No swimming in the sea by yours ?

Not sea swimming, but I go to the local pool at least once a week and blast out 64-80 lengths front crawl.

Cover yourself in deep heat before you get until. I'm sure the pool attendants won't mind.
