Morning run to Northey

My early morning run was delayed as I had some admin and chores to do first. Nevertheless,  I wanted to make the most of the day so off on my favourite route from home. Once on Northey Island I became distracted by the fab view and beautiful skyscape.  Sothat when I tried to get off the Island the tide had turned and flooded the causeway. (Rookie error as I was well aware of the tide times.)  I had 2 options: to wait 4 hours for the tide to turn, or to wade through the incoming water. Luckily I have long legs and a clear idea of the location of the causeway ... so, I opted to wade off the Island. Safely on the mainland, but soggy, I took this blip.

Back home and quick change, ready to meet the lovely M for a Basin bob. A beautiful,  but cold swim - I made it round the first boat. Our October swim earned us both a bobbers' bobble hat. We enjoyed a hot tea and chat on the sea wall before home for a nice shower.
