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

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.
