7 days in a week last time i looked --- give it longer!

This is brilliant!! Good work! Like you I just cant get enough of being in the water, earlier post made a good point about getting a decent moisturizer and having the clearest skin in my life thanks to the regular dose of chlorine!

Totally get it, each of my.swim sessions is minimum a mile in 45mins (is that pootling?) I am talking about dedicated swimming for fitness, swimming that I am hoping will build up my stamina and breathing for other things like running...in my.own world.that is my training.

Like you I wonder at what cost to my body (in its current state) is this run? Three people I work with all avid runners have foot and knee injuries inflicted by pounding pavement...

Great thread! Loving having a peek at other people's recipes! I have just prepped for the week Spanish chicken (loads of root veg, chicken thighs, tomatoes, garlic, paprika and oregano) and (a new one for me) fish cakes! All bagged up and in the freezer for the week ahead!
