Hello
Occasional lurker on this thread. My ankle/foot is playing up, meaning running is proving difficult. Not a massive runner, but on a good week manage a couple of fairly short ones.
Thought that a version of a 10K run but in the water would be good to train/aim for. I used to compete for the local Borough as a child, so my technique is still ok, just need lots of stamina.
I can see the British Gas outdoor swimming series but frankly after a friend did a triathlon and talked about the brown I try not to think poo sludge that was attracted to her Vaselined face during the swim bit I have gone off the idea of outdoor swimming!
So, any ideas as to where I find a list of open to enter swims. Am guessing they need to be sponsored type rather than a race.
I have googled, but nothing obvious came up. Thinking Oct/Nov and ideally in London/surrounding area.
Any ideas as to where I should look?
TIA
