Onwards

I managed my first swim of the month today, and it was so good to get back in the water.

My friend Cammie is planning to swim the length of Loch Lomond (24 miles or 39 km) in a few weeks. He has been training hard and now into some seriously long swims. This was him heading out after I finished one 3km loop with him. By that point he was 9km and 3 hours into the planned, and completed, 5.5 hour, 16.5km swim. Amazing.

After that I headed home to meet JT and K and we had a walk from Locher woods into Muirsheil Park and up Windy Hill. I had a few sheets of paper printed from the internet with instructions, K had the wrong map (and will be given abuse for that for YEARS!) and of course that meant we couldn't quite work out the right path. So a diversion or two later and it was something like 4 hours before we were back at the car.

Now I'm tired! It's been a great day, but I think after my relatively lazy few weeks I am going to be sore in the morning. Bath and beer beckon. Not necessarily in that order!
