After going a wetsuited walk on Christmas Day, of course, I had to do the same again on Boxing Day! Was wearing the Synergy Swimrun wetsuit again. Since it was only wetsuit, I took up to Scotland with me! This walk was even longer than yesterday. Did 3.5 miles, check out the route at www.strava.com/activities/6429019934.
