training

9th may

well training has started, i decided to start from swansea bay inbetween the new tower & the observatory. after what seemed an age i got to mumbles (after 2hrs). i did stop every half hour for a chunk of choccy & a drink. after a 20 minuite stop i then started back but this time the tide was against me & it took an extra half hour,so 2.5hr paddle back. i did`nt feel to bad after i got back & walked the 2 miles back home.

16th may

i gain followed the same route as last week but the tide was not far from low, paddled for 1 hr 45 mins then ran aground near norton, so stopped for 10 mins & then paddled back. this time the tide was with me & i flew back covering the miles in about 1 qtr hours. again not feeling to bad after but a sore arm was apparent.

17th may

awoke in the morning with a very sore & immovable arm with a lump on it, after copiuos amounts of deep heat & bandage it has now eased (on the 18th).

the next trainig will be from oxwich to caswell,hopefully in 2 weeks time (weather depending of course)
