30 Daily Swims |
Tweet
Today after my run up Dronningen I got in the water outside the hytte. There's a lot of seaweed on the rocks, so it's not so nice to climb in when the tide is low. I did it anyway though, and now I've started this crazy journey we'll see how it goes!
Day Three - Osterfjorden, Eknes
Yesterday I really started the day with the swim, but today I didn't make it down to the water until after 11. It was a solid way to get my blood flowing for the day though and I felt quite warm afterward. Also, walking to a diving board instead of trying to wade in from the rocks at my place was also easier.
Day Four - Osterfjorden, Eknes
Another morning swim at Eknes. I went into the water stressed and came out reborn.
Day Five - snowmelt lake, Storehesten
This morning I did the Storehesten Opp all by myself. Afterward I went for a swim in the snowmelt lake near Skaraly hytta. Every morning it is a struggle to force myself to swim, and every day afterward I feel rejunvenated. This morning I just felt like giving up because Google said they weren't interested in hiring me at this time. After the short, bracing swim I felt quite right, however, and ready to tackle the afternoon.
Day Six - Eikefjorden, Eikefjord
Day Eight - Byfjorden, Solneset
Ran to Solneset park and jumped repeatedly off the diving board with my glee.
Short swim off the slippery rocks before heading out to play baseball games against the Oslo Pretenders.
Day Thirteen - Byfjorden, Erdal
This evening's swim was a wussy little swim after baseball practice. I was already kinda soaked from playing in the rain, so it was rather redundent to get into the water. It's a long day. I feel like I'm barely keeping this project going!
Day Fourteen - Byfjorden, Erdal
Day Fifteen - Byfjorden, Erdal
Day Sixteen - Lammetovatnet, Askøy
I found a lake to swim in on my run this afternoon!
Day Seventeen - Øvre Botnavatnet, Høgafjellet, Osterøy
Day Eighteen* - Byfjorden, Solneset
Yesterday I did not get a swim in, so officially I broke the streak but I'm going to keep going anyway. It is often very hard to force myself to take the time to get into the water, but I never regret it afterward. Tonight was no exception and I capped off my evening run with a long leap off the diving board at Solneset. I'm a big fan of that park!
