Cold Buzz! Nov-March 🥶🏊

Fueled by tea & cake, I'll be cold water swimming this winter.

I wanted to raise some money for this brilliant local charity & challenge myself at the same time. So whilst I was very warm in July I decided to enter The Polar Bear Challenge https://polarbearchallenges.com/challenge-levels

The challenge starts on November 1st and finishes on March 31st 2024.

Starting off at the top level Jedi & aiming to keep my position throughout the challenge.

I have to swim 3000m per month & also complete set distance, & set temperature swims.

This has to be completed in a swimming costume & swimming hat ONLY.

Water temperatures will range from 17°c in September when I start acclimation to around 10°c in November when I start the challenge, to as low as 0°c in Dec/Jan.

Last year I was mostly dipping with my furthest swim being 225m in 2.8°c so this year will definitely push me.

Thank you for supporting me on this fresh & exhilarating challenge ❤️
