Nice Video! Can you remember what tour company you used to hire the Jet Ski's?

This is why white women get the stigma they are not afraid of anything

Openswim pro 10/10 🌟

Isn’t Dorset beautiful?! That sunrise swim looked like heaven!

I would know I was about to start the vacation of my dreams when I saw all the tow floats and swim gear hanging up to dry. I would know I was in heaven when I saw the box of warm croissants on the beach during a sunrise swim. Tbh… all of this looked like swimming heaven, and heaven’s cafeteria to me. Isn’t it amazing just how much swimming enhances our lives?!? Thanks for sharing all the fun times, the beautiful scenery, and the cake and pizza too!! Ⓜary💦🏊‍♀🇨🇦

Finally found time to watch this! What a fabulous weekend! Such a well organised weekend and the catering looked splendid! The sunset and sunrise swims looked so magical. Tell me … how far was the swim from Old Harry back to the beach?

Loved this especially the sunrise swim. I swim regularly but haven’t managed a very early swim yet what a treat it looked so lovely thank you for sharing it with us look forward to watching more of your swim adventures

Great video, swimming, cakes and sunsets what is not to like :) How did you find the Nuotare?

Fabulous Rachel.Enjoyed watching video.

First video this morning with a coffee 💙🩵💦 What joy and fun you all had! It was interesting to see everyone's kit for the day.

Excellent, I really enjoyed it.

that looked like a lot of fun!

Lovely to see Dorset. You look like you had a great time. Those pizzas looked great

Looks like a great group, so much fun!

Hooray!! So excited to see this video Rachel! Just off for a swim so I’ll watch it with my coffee when I get home!

Hi Rachel- I remember some time ago you explaining about swimming below the bridge and how do this safely with shipping traffic etc but I can’t seem to find it - are you able to post a link to it?

Hi rach, I enjoyed your simple and honest review of the xtrainer. Just wondering, for the mp3 downloads, do you happen to know if there is anyway we can play based on playlists or we can only play the entire downloaded song list and shuffle if we prefer to shuffle? Thanks. Eugene from Singapore 😊

Looks lovely :-) How deep is it? Can I take a child along?

Thanks

Thanks Rachel, this is an amazing idea that I will be using for my boots and passing on to everyone I sail and paddleboard with

Lovely video once again. Are you allowed to reveal where this was?

Really helpful, thank you 💞

What a lovely video Rachel. So often I see people posting all about how wonderful they are or showing off / boasting about themselves, what they're doing...but you are so gentle and natural - such a refreshing change. Well done!

Nice video!😊👍🏻

How cold is it? Do you not use a wetsuit in winter, or are you cold adapted?

Wish my Ollie would swim with me, he's like Cookie and gets stressed but then jumps in the water and freaks out! He's a golden doodle so you'd think he'd like swimming, but no, and yes it is stressful listening to their cries when you are trying to have a relaxing swim. Good adventure. Look forward to the next :) x

Swift recovery Rachael. I miss your kit comparison videos. Might I suggest phone and camera waterproofing? Something that wouldn't need bending or working your back? And I need some new protection for my phone and would appreciate your suggestions. Selfish? Much.

Hi Rach, thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to show this step by step. I have just got my kit, and do not have a particularly clear diary over the next few days, so having the benefit of seeing your first 3 days has really crystallised my thinking of which day to pick to actually start the test. The study is quite pricey, so I was feeling the pressure of the unknown, and wanted to ensure I got it right. It was great to be 'led by the hand' so to speak to see you go through it all. I am really pleased from your part 4 video that the results you had hoped for, in having more energy have come through for you, and hope that this has continued well for you since then. I really enjoy your personality and communication skills, so thank you for putting yourself out there, and making the videos. Well done.

Wow so special that you can have a day that includes work and this great experience. That right there is work life balance and a life well lived. Now im trying to think of some great activities i can incorporate into a workday.

Glad you found a nice spot eventually! It did look very tempting but I still prefer the sea!

Thank you for this video. I recently had a panic attack whilst in a lake. I was swimming back towards our boat when a larger boat passed by and caused a wake to smack me in the face and caused me to take a gulp of water. I started to panic, my body froze, and luckily my buddy was closeby to keep me afloat long enough for someone to throw a life vest for me to relax on and get my breathing back in order.

First time watching :-) What a lovely spot you found by the river. Cookie had a great time, sniffing and swimming and running free. So nice to hear the British accent! I am from the Midlands, ( Banbury ) now living in America. What a lovely day! Thank you for the Walk-Around :-)

How about jumping in water?😊

Great vid Rachel with Cookie ,bet it was great finally getting in the river after your long and heated walk,looked very refreshing,and clear,me and my wife had 10 days in Norfolk,had a great swim at Sea Palling lovely sandy beach,and a couple of seals came with in 10ft amazing ,and went to Sheringham beach which was pebley beach but both were great fun,love swimming in the sea. 👍,

Great video, couldn’t help but laugh out loud when that swan appeared and wasn’t happy 🦢 Good on Cookie for joining you for a swim, if you could tow a small board alongside you, maybe she could even join you for further swishes!

Hello Dear Rachel, I thank you very much. Because I started swimming 3 years ago and now I have the confidence and fitness to swim in the open sea. Here I am faced with the question of which product I need and what I should buy. You are helping me a lot with these videos you share. I thank you sincerely, these videos are a great experience sharing.

Came on here thinking why is this lady putting a video out of her dog walk looking for a swim spot? Ended up thoroughly enjoying this video. You have a natural presenting demeanour which is so relaxing to watch. Thank you!

Good to see you and cookie back.x

Aww Rachel my friend lovely to see you - you are just blooming brilliant! The smile on your face as you had that gorgeous looking swim and your free spirit nature to walk down the road in your cossie in case of other opportunities - did you find any? You are an inspiration for doing that. Also as it was a hot day, did you find cossie dried as you walked? Hope comfortable if so - lovely to sun dry clothes rather than tumble them but crumbs! They go so totally rough that one could file their nails on the fabric 😂😂

Lovely to see you post a video Rachel! I am looking forward to you posting a video of the swoosh!!

Lovely to see you in the water again and it looks like Cookie eventually enjoyed the water too :-) x

Your channel is therapeutic ! I feel better just looking at you enjoy the nature and the water ! 🙂

We get our blackberries here in April/May!

Your videos are just as mood-lifting as a good swim ! 💜

Great to see a new video 🎉 Always welcome, whatever the break 😊 Appreciate how long these things take and real life needs to take priority. Myself? Lots of head in crawl in my local river (Avon at Eckington) having spent last 18 months learning and becoming proficient. Settled down with more tea and cake to your video apres swim! All best to you both 😊

Great to see you back. What a marathon! Well done.

What a lovely episode after your break! I'm so pleased Cookie swam with you - and behaved herself fairly well. Her tail was wagging throughout, not sure if it was a swimming aid or because she was enjoying herself!

Ahh Cookie monster did great swimming :)

Pineapple mayweed lots of other local names.

So nice to see you again
