I had the best time.
In fact, I had the most enjoyable 10k swim I’ve ever done. And I’ve done a few!
I took the pressure off. I let go of all expectations.
I dropped right back on pace, swam alongside my partner who was feeling a little anxious, and had a giggle instead.
I smiled the whole way round.
Relaxed when the inevitable niggles kicked in.
And I finished in 2hrs 41min. 10th place.
Not quite the 2hr 30min PB I’d trained for all year, but the most enjoyable swim yet.
I never was a number-chasing kinda gal.
I tried to challenge myself this year and in turn, lost the love and felt the pressure.
Non-number-chasing gal returns.
Thanks and
See you next time, maybe 🏊🏻♀️
Thanks for the continued support 🩵
