Swim humbly; lower your distances, lower your pace and lower your expectations. If taking the plunge, especially in open water, initially you will feel fabulous – elation through the roof, endorphins buzzing!
To say that there is a lot of information coming out to swimmers and venues right now would be an understatement. You would like to swim, I understand that, after all that is what you do but how best should you return to the water? Ensure you work out WHEN the time is right FOR YOU. There is no need to rush back to the open water, why not take your time and have a read on and ponder on what your initial sessions might feel like and what they may include.
