Our next stop, Park Rd Pools, is partially heated with water from the indoor pool but as caught our first glimpse of the pool it was hard not to notice a number of wetsuited swimmers. Although John had bought a wetsuit the rest of us were suddenly very aware that our skimpy bathers weren’t going to conserve much body heat. While Pete, Jo, Libi , Chris and John wimped about taking photos Seb and Ally and jumped in and got started.
We all eventually managed to get our shoulders under apart from John who had decided not to crack out his wetsuit for the partially heated pool and unfortunately found the water just too cold to brave. As we left the rain started the fall something that would have worried us if we hadn't been too busy contemplating the waffle stand at Finsbury Park station.
Thanks to Park Road Pools support we were able to add £35.00 to the sponsorship pot and between us we swam a total of 2700m.
