    Hi all,

    I'm hoping to bump up the laps this winter and do a 5k swim in early summer next year followed by a 10k later in the year. Any recommendations for events? I'm near the West coast but will travel. Thanks

    Quite a few in Sligo. Just had the Lough Gill 10km a few weeks, the Metal Man series (shorter swims/sprint distances) a few months ago, both being around the same time each year. The Warrior of The Sea, 10km plus, did not take place this year, but is hopefully back next July/August. All to name a few.

    Hopefully will do the swim series next year after wimping out this time around.

    Thanks lads, Mint sauce - any links to this series?

    Freddio - I'd be very slow so nothing too competitive!!

    thanks
