7th February 2026. Pennington flash

Get in! I did 700m, add this to my distance on Tuesday means I have completed 1550m in the first week of February which means I'm just over half way to my target this month 😀

Water temperature was 5.1 degrees and air temperature was 6 degrees.

I pushed myself today and loved it! Despite a bit of choppiness and small ripples!

I know i can go further when the water is warmer!

Total meters since 1st November is 9700 the equivalent to just over 6 miles.

I got my first sub 10 badge today as well which means i have swam 10 times in water less than 10 degrees which was part of my initial challenge. However, i have two more swims under my belt so hoping i get another one by the ene of march. Plus, i have 8 sub 10 wild swims under my belt as well so will defo get an extra badge for that. Need to find something to sew them on to 🤣. Last time i got an award for swimming was when i was 11!.

Exiting with a grin on my face ☺️

I got my first sub 10 badge!!
