At the ILDSA Awards to collect my Cert & Medal for last year's Galway Bay solo swim. Got to meet some great swimmers, got some advice & tips for plans for this year's swim adventures. #MarathonSwimming #IrishLongDistanceSwimmingAssociation #LongDistanceSwimming #VitaminSea

Swim Review 2024:
I had 4 goals, hit 2, I wanted to get 3 Swim Marathons, I got 1, Galway Bay (10.5km, 4hrs 39mins). Weather wouldn't cooperate for others. I wanted to break 500km swam, I hit 520.

Distance / Time / Days Swam
2024: 520km / 206hrs / 233 days
2023: 260km / 111hrs / 254 days

On the 15th of December, I attended the Waterford Filipino-Irish Community Christmas Party and performed a few songs. This one was One More Light by Linkin Park, in memory of my mother who passed suddenly in September. #MissYou

Lovely morning for a sea swim. Air temp a chilli 2c, but there's not a breeze so it wasn't bad getting out of the water. Water dropped down to 10c, but still managed 1km. Could have done more but got up late and didn't have the time to do more.

And the end of the #LateLateToyShow means that Christmas 2024 has officially begun 🎄

That Thunderstruck Céilí mashup was great on the #LateLateToyShow

Last year I swam 260km total for the year, I wanted to not just break that but to smash it this year. I set myself a target for 500km for 2024 and this morning I ticked over that target with loads of time to spare. 😁

Bring on 2025 and see can I best that again

First day in the sea since the 16th (a lot of Pool swimming still though). Water temp dropped 3c since I was last in. Bit of a cold sting getting in but quickly normalised and still managed a 1km swim.
