A Christmas day dip... we call it cross traning

Postby thePinkDreamMachine » Thu Dec 25, 2008 9:46 pm

Down in Devon at the farm... its tradition to have a Christmas day dip in the sea... its A rigorous training session comprised of a 800m run in wellies (of course mine are PINK hunters) and swimming costumes.. on arrival at the sea a dip with three laps of the 'bugles hole' and a quick warming uphill sprint back, before warming out selves on the AGA

Note : pearls were worn, just in case you were wondering.. cant let the side down

I LOVE DEVON...

Was this before or after lunch, and why were your two friends wearing what seem to be wetsuits, are the soft or something? :shock:

Happy Xmas

Cheers
