Laura shares her story

Here I am bunkered down in Lake Tabourie and after reading the recent swimmers posts I thought to share with you, my isolation activity.

A few weeks ago, I bought a bungy swimming cord so I could keep up my swim training. It’s quite a resistance workout. I swim for about an hour most days in our pool. It’s like swimming against a strong, never ending current.

The water temperature is currently 19 degrees and although it can be physically and mentally challenging swimming on the same spot for a period of time, once I’ve found my rhythm it’s quite meditative.

I’m so glad I managed to get a hold of one of these.

I’m hoping to continue my backyard pool training throughout the coming winter, although I’m not sure how cold it might get. 

Miss you guys, stay safe. Love Laura.
