3rd morning swim

3rd morning swim in a row is starting to break me, my body is reporting aches from all over the place and it feels like I have some kind of permanent stitch. I did manage the 110 lengths which is just over a mile in the 45 minutes but it was hard, and I was feeling the ache from the moment I started out and it was a slog all the way to the end. I do enjoy it though and I feel fresher and more ready to take on the day after the swim.

I also received my fundraising pack and vest from the RSPCA last night. Despite advice to the contrary, I opted for a vest rather than the T Shirt, in medium. I have always been a medium, whenever I have ever bought any clothes I am Mr. Medium, only it seems that I might have put on a bit of mass on my torso and this loose running vest (in medium) was a bit too tight. It looked as if I had borrowed the Wife’s crop top.

Anyway, onward. This weekend I am planning on getting some running shoes so that I can run this half marathon next Sunday in a little bit of comfort. I am also thinking of having a reconnoitre of the half marathon route just so if I do lose the rest of the runners I will at least still know which way to go.
