With the possibility of having to swim in wetsuits we decide to do a day break dip to the lake before it gets to hot for the neoprene. We head off out to the bouys and have a nice swim, a few others out and we are told the water must be about 21'c. As we get out of the water Lawr asks me why i put our changing bag next to the bin. I hadn't. And as we look inside the bag Lawr's towel and shoes are missing. He took off with out a word, well only a sweary word and i had no idea where he is going, but years of Merthyr life have given him insight. I check about the toilets and buildings before i decide that I should find Lawr, he appears chest puffed and towel and shoes intact.
Apparently he ran along the busy road in his tri suit barefooted as he had spotted the thiefs with his shoes on and his towel on his shoulder. Long story short we nearly got everything back.
Being such a lovely morning and with some adrenaline to spare we have a pleasant cycle round the lake and after a headset bearing hunt we settle for fig bread and sables.
Quick splash to cool off before bike titivation for sunday.
Great day
highs - lake swim, cycle, dusk swim
lows - thiefs
note -trust your intuition and instinct
