Last fall I decided to attempt med third 21+6 race at Vidösternsimmet. I had recovered from my 2021 injury and my 2022 Vidösternsimmet swim felt good at 6:23 (8th place) and missing lots of winter swimming. But of course I got hurt again this past winter, and I missed out on nearly 7 months of training.

Being able to swim the 21km was a real positive for me, not swimming fast enough to join the 6km was not great, but probably best for my recovery in the long run.
