One of my favourite Christmas Day traditions.
Great to be back at the newly reopened Tooting Bec Lido for their Christmas Day Race - wrapped up warm whilst cheering on those brave enough to take part!

I had a swift dip on the shortest day at the newly reopened @slsclido. Lovely new paving, pool lining and murals. Thanks to @wandbc for putting the capital spend in. It’s never easy to make the case but the pleasure for locals will make it more than worthwhile.

Thank you @outdoor_swimmer for this feature in the magazine. Really enjoyed writing this. Swimming 🏊♀️ has saved my life, it’s the best part of 2022. Looking forward to now taking open water swimming forward and encouraging my community to join me on this journey 🙏🏽🥰❤️🌈😘
