Summary

After Old Bloke went running and took a tumble, he had to rethink his fitness and fun regime. This little book dives deep into the stuff and nonsense of swimming. If you have a go, have a laugh or even learn something...job done! Could I take the plunge and make a splash by finding a new way of burning the calories? Could I swim my way back to running and, ultimately, a more balanced lifestyle?

Chlorine is a Covid Killer

Loved Old Bloke Goes Swimming. Lots of facts I didn't know. Well researched. Lots of jokes. Paul is very good at laughing at himself. Everybody will see a bit of themselves in his experiences. Some good tips too! Swimming & running go well together. As a very old bloke myself I realise exercise not medication is the key to a better life in my 70s. Paul's narration is excellent.

Strangely Satisfying.

This simple yet refreshing plunge into swimming in later life had me laughing out loud. Keen to get my budgie smugglers out of the wardrobe, I felt ready to take a dip again.
