Helloooo Katie,
5km might not be much of a challenge for you so maybe you should do it twice šāāļøšāāļø

Great, EP.
The osw plan does not think we need really long training sessions - max is 50 min.

really?
Oh that's nice to hear as I have 3.8km for my ironman in July and have been having a wibble.
I know I have CV endurance from run and bike but was worried about the swim

I've prebooked my sessions for this week - Tues, Thurs and Sunday in the pool and Wednesday open water. It's a pain having to book in advance but at the same time I know I'm more likely to go if I've booked ahead.
Number 1 son is coming with me on Sunday (fast swimmer but out of practice!). He's my secret weapon for keeping myself motivated

Iād be very happy to build up to 5k this year...with no event booked it feels hard to be motivated. 5k is 6 laps of the smaller lake at Box End.

I'm waiting for the water to warm up before I go outside! Then I won't have a time limit so can swim longer

We have hour slots at Box End, so I would need a double slot to do 5km but at the moment 1 lap is about enough with the cold water.

Pools still not open here for another couple of weeks (feels like everyone is back swimming but me!!!).
I had hoped to be back in the OW about now but with the really cold weather the last couple of weeks I am putting it off - I doubt I could stay in for long and it is an hour's drive each way.
Maybe I should just move house? I REALLY miss swimming *sigh*
