Bondi Overview

Here you can see Bondi Beach and the house I lived in before moving to Bangkok.
I used to swim once a week across the bay, out past the white water then swim across to the other side - 1km across - every week. The first time I did this I swear I almost drowned myself it took me about 3 hours.
After a couple of months I could swim across, on a day with little swell, in 40 minutes.
I would often combine this with several laps of jogging in the soft sand, a 1km run, then a 1 km swim, followed by a 1 km run.
I was pretty fit when I lived here.
