Lake Coniston has finally warmed up! John and I were in the Lake this weekend. The water was lovely and it was exceptionally warm on the outside! John pottered up and down in his kayak whilst I plodded up the lake for 2 hours then crossed over to the other side and plodded back! The lake was full of canoeists, kayakers, yachts and inflatables which gave me something to concentrate on. I eventually swam just over 4 hours on the saturday and 2 hours on sunday - the trouble is that now things have warmed up so have the insects - I was eaten to pieces on sunday and still have the lumps and bumps to prove it!!
I am in Dover next weekend for a long long swim (8hrs +) before I finally calm down for the big swim!
