UK Ice Mile Swimmers

Saw that Fegal Somerville organized a group ice mile swim with many swimmers in the UK.  7 out of 9 swimmers actually finished their ice mile swim.  Very cool.

I got my patch from IISA in the mail last week and got it on my parka.  Framed the certificate which is up on my bedroom wall.

As for this morning's swim.  My shoulder is feeling good as new.  I was in the pool at 0545 and did 1000 yards before doing Craig's workout with Masters:
