Yippee, I’ve 12 sea swims completed 13/12/2025
Saturday 13th Dec A wee bit tired today as I was babysitting last night The girls were up for a swim so Ruth, Seafra & myself met at the beach @ 10am. The sea was a bit fistey and it seemed like the wind was picking up too. Our friend Suzanne was walking her dog so we asked her to take some photos. Then it was time for a swim. Not the kindest sea ever and it’s not nice being spat out but it was a buzz! I’ve now got 12 Sea Swim under my belt. I’m heading inland this afternoon for 4 days but I’ll be back in the sea next week when I’m near the sea. However I’ll take a cold shower to keep me accustomed to the winter sea! Share

December 9th, swim number 8
Tuesday 9th Dec What a day! Storm Bram was a serious piece of wind rain and destruction. So I went to Wicklow and couldn’t have been happier to see a relatively calm sea with just a few rollers rolling in but certainly nothing to cause me stress. If really felt great to have been able to swim on such a stormy day. I’ll called into Seafra on my way home. Ruth, Seafra and myself all had a fantastic sauna followed by either the plunge bath or cold shower. Good day eh Share
December 8th, swim number 7
Monday 8th Dec Newcastle beach was blowing a gale at 8am while lots of White Sea horses kept us out of the sea. So Jane and myself took our selves off to Wicklow where the harbour was actually nice and calm. We had a really lovely swim in a cold 9 degree sea but it was so Nice to have a good swim. Great start to a lovely bright sunny day! Share

December 6th, swim number 5
Saturday 6th Dec Busy Saturday. Played tennis at 9 and took my swim gear with me. I went to Sandycove and the forty foot and decided to take the safe option . Sandycove was a wee bit wild and the tide was very high but the water seemed nice. I stayed in a good while. Share
December 4th, swim number 4
Thursday 4th Dec Hard to believe it was another lovely Winters morning. Clear skies, blue sea and a golden sunrise. I swam alone at 8am and the sea was kind. I couldn’t be happier. 4 days in and 4 swims Share
December 3rd, swim number 3
Wednesday 3rd Dec We met at 9am on the beach and all 4 of us swim together as the sun Rose beautifully over head. The sea was lively and gave us a good adrenaline boost as she rolled in. Everyone was in great form. Share
