This evening I have made it to the source of the River Severn in Mid Wales.
This is the culmination of many months hard work, planning and training to swim the length of The River Severn.
This swim has taken over my life and I can’t wait to get started. I will be walking/ swimming most of the day tomorrow hoping to cover about 18 miles to Caersws.
The walk to the source is a lovely well maintained path and has some lovely views out across Wales. It took about 2 hours gentle walking and talking to make it up here.
It is now time to settle down and get some rest.
