I was going to ask you if it will snow where you live?
and no no no, I'm not one of "those" people who go swimming in the ocean baths at the crack of dawn in the middle of winter .... I told you I'm a massive softie when it comes to cold ... indoor heated pool for me 😉
I used to do squad training when i was a young fella, taking the kids along to toddler swimming got me keen to go again. I try to make it weekly, sometimes I can't, sometimes I go more than once. It's been great physically and mentally for me. I usually do a solid 1/2hr and while I'm swimming I try to practice some mindfulness. It has happened more than once before where I have gotten into "the zone" so much I've gone way over time on my lane booking 🙂
I thought you all might like a funny photo

This is one of my boys, his name is Max ... no he isn't a miniture afghan hound with a shaved face 😉 Just a regular whippet that crawled his way under a wooly blanket and stuck his nose out.
He's about 18mths old, he's very funny and cheeky, and he has plenty of "issues" (for anyone who knows the breed, they will understand completely)
