Back to a more sanguine mental status- or so I had hoped.

Been couped up and going a little nuts over the last few weeks with work and all this stuff and not being able to get out and about pressure has been building up causing me to release steam -unfortunately with some brain fade moments. Came to me today gotta try to let off steam by exercise.

Decided to go and do some laps in the ocean pool at lunchtime in Newcastle.

But then researched Covid 19- seems it can live days in water and in that 10 to 25 degrees zone it thrives, and in open water there is a risk of transmission via person infected/faecal material etc.

Now, imagine swimming in ocean pool, with water having Covid 19. Doing laps that water goes into ears, nose, and you do occasionally get a drop or two of water going into your mouth and down your throat.

Closed chemical pools are fine with chlorine and chemical dosing- it kills covid 19.

Surprised ocean pools allow people to do laps and exercise.

Ah well- will have to dust off my bike over the weekend.
