Winter dips are probably great for burning calories, but if the temperature is too cold then I just can't stay in for long. Already the sea temp is rising and I'm swimming for about 30 minutes in my lunchtime which is heaven.

I would never have gusset that the crawl isn't a great calorie burner. Do you burn more calories just to stay warm when the water is colder? I just recommended your blog to another blogger because of your amazing ocean swims. She too is a swimmer and an athlete in general. Her name is Diane and she is also GORGEOUS but very down to earth.<br />Your outfit is wonderfully colorful Anna.
