I swim the seven seas.

Some views I have enjoyed this week as my open water swim coaching goes full time.

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

It only seemed like yesterday that these local swims were very common. Now they seem so far away.

My 2nd Ice swim event for the season, and still the water is not cold enough. GB Champs was 6.4c, but did another km #greginthewater #iisagb #winterswim

A fresh skins swim on #StAndrewsDay in #lochlomond with air plunging to -4.5c, and the water a toasty 4.9c for my first #iceswim for the season. Lasted just over 15 minutes before heading to shore to warm up. @lovelochlomond #WinterIsHere

Been too long between swims in my favourite pool

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

A breathtaking dawn swim on #lochlomond on Sunday in smooth 15c water with a hint of autumn in the air. Just another 45 minute skins swim that never fails to impress @lovelochlomond @lomondtrossachs

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

It is happening...the water in my favourite loch was over 10c on the weekend. Time to celebrate with longer swims. Summer is almost here @lomondtrossachs @CameronLodges

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

Saturday morning swim in #lochard with water almost 10c and gentle rain falling. Another nice skins swim out to island and back for 1st time this year. Summer is coming @robroycountry @lomondtrossachs #openwaterswimming #

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

Friday 6am and a mile swum in #lochlomond in the silky smooth warmish 8.3c water. Longest skins swim in Scotland since August. Glorious morning for it too @lovelochlomond #leaveonlybubbles #outdoorswimmingsociety #magic #springswim

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

#EasterMonday for 4th skins swim of the weekend in #lochlomond. This time back to #aldochlay for another sublime stunning 1500m swim and round to #weepeter for the first time this year. Water hovering around 8.0c but still delightful

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

#EasterSunday for another divine 37 min skins swim in #lochlomond with the water a pleasant 8.0c. How long can this sun keep shining over Scotland? #openwaterswim @oceanswims @lomondtrossachs

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

Saturday morning and sun still shining on #lochlomond and water up to 8.9c. New record for the year with a 41 min skins swim in sublime conditions with first visit to #inchtavannach this year @lovelochlomond @lomondtrossachs @oceanswims

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

@TomMcGrannachan Welcome to the century club

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

Friday dawn swim on #lochlomond with @icemaiden999. The reflections were amazing, and the sunrise over #inchtavannach was mesmerising. Oh and the water has warmed up to 6.9c so managed my longest skins swims of 2019 at 1.1km @lomondtrossachs

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

Fresh dawn swim in #lochlomond on Friday with air at -1c, and water warmer at 6.5c. Bu when conditions are this good you know you just want to get in for a 25 min skins dip @lovelochlomond

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

Another double dip weekend in #lochlomond with Sunday at Duck Bay with some wind chop for a change. So much fun playing in the waves for a 20 minute or so skins swim under the grey sky. @lovelochlomond @lomondtrossachs

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

Saturday morning at #luss under a snowcapped #benlomond for a fresh 18 minute skins swim in the 5.5c water. That loch is stubbornly holding onto the cold water to keep us invigorated. @lovelochlomond @lomondtrossachs #leaveonlybubbles

[Greg Hincks @greginthewater]

A stunning morning for a swim in #lochlomond on Sunday, even though the water is still a stubborn 5.8c. Another delightful 1km skins swim with a few stops to stare at the view. Scotland is magic on days like this. @lomondtrossachs @lovelochlomond #leaveonlybubbles

@JamiePaters I assume you mean the time and not the radio station?
