Daisy - 1 hour?? 1 mile?? - astonished at both.
duo - I too am as blind as a bat, and deaf as well, and the hearing aids have to come out in the water. I just swim incommunicado. But not the way Daisy swims.
Been to the vibe cycle class. She seems to work us harder every time. Legs felt quite wobbly when I got home.
(Had some wine to make them wobblier)

why can't you walk, Bint? Did I miss something? Lovely run yesterday, it was hot though and blimey but it's hilly here. Going to have another run again this morning I think. You can get prescription goggles, I've often thought about it as I cannot see a thing without my glasses, but in some ways it might be nicer not to see the plasters floating about in the pool

I bought some years ago and they were the key to learning to swim for me; finally I could see what the instructor was telling me to do!

Well done swimmers. Prescription goggles are surprisingly cheap off tinternet I used to swim in contact lenses with goggles but that’s bad for the lenses (did LD blog that?) and I was a liability blind I couldn’t reliably find my way to the right changing rooms. Not that I swim much. Certainly not a mile in one go using a decent technique

I have prescription goggles but also swim in lenses, depending on whether I'm wearing my glasses that day.

No I've not swum in contact lenses for decades, but I'm a big fan of my prescription goggles. They were surprisingly cheap and work really well and I wish I'd got them years ago.
Blimey AL our coach is amazed when our track group reaches double figures, you are clearly a very inspirational coach!
