Saturday was a bit dreary but the water was swimmable and over 9c.  Two groups in during the day – the normal 8.15am and a group from Blackwater Tri at 1.00.  Amazingly, Siobhan arrived to take pictures of the first group and then swam with the second.  Dedicated to the cause and no mistake 🙂

Just down to take the pictures – not swimming until lunchtime.

Fair dues to the Blackwater group, they knew she was a hero and gave her a throne.

Siobhan Russell gets a lift – well done Nigel Carroll and Martin Buckley.

As ever, when Siobhan says “pose” –

Blackwater Tri – they’re really up for posing for Siobhan. And swimming too, of course.

We’ll be launching the new swim hats on an unsuspecting world at 5.45 today, before the usual 6.00 swim.  Swims also planned on Thursday at 4.30pm and Saturday at 08.15.
