Swimming at the Lido SERIES

***Special event this weekend**We have BTF (British Triathlon) popping by to film us in our natural habitat of the lido! So please don your best swim suit with Windrush hat and pop along to the normal Saturday session 9.45-10.45am. There will be cold water swim badges to be achieved and awarded by the swim captains (only 50m of swimming needed) with a superb cake baked by Claire to be dished out poolside and of course the usual warming sauna! It would be great to show the triathlon community what Windrush love to do as a member of such an awesome club and if you wish to say a few more words about it on camera in exchange for a triathlon goodie bag then let me know!See you Saturday - don’t miss it!--------------------------------------The Windrush lane is available from 9.45am which means you can swim in the Lido straight after Brockwell Park's Parkrun. After our swimming session we book (for the RSVPs) a big table in the outdoor area of The Lido Café at 11am so join us for coffee and a cake (plus brunch if you are hungry). We take it in turns to bake a cake so are always looking out for new and crafty bakers to feed us hungry swimmers. If you're game here is our cake baking schedule (https://goo.gl/Pm85a1), pick an empty date, pop your name on the spreadsheet and make Mary Berry proud. Please do remember to pay for your food and drinks! Our uncoached swimming session is a great opportunity to get in those distance swims, or just get used to the water without the pressure of a structured session. Please use our allocated lane observing pool etiquette which you can find here. Please do wear your yellow Windrush swimming hat too so it’s clear who’s a club member. These can be bought poolside from Simon the Swim captain for £5 or from our kit shop here.

Pilates SERIES
