It would be a bit contrived, but an adventure in the hills and lakes all the same. Idea: Swim upper lake in Glendalough, run to Lough Ouler, swim across Lough Ouler, run to Lough Dan, swim that, run back to Glendalough and swim again (just for the punishment/fun) roughly 30km of running with about 4km of swimming. If this sounds confusing or silly, try a web search for Frog Graham Round or Otillo Swim Run. Give us your thoughts anyways :) |

Found the length of Lough Dan quite difficult. I wouldn't be calling this a Wicklow Frog attempt as there is a lot of potential for route to different lakes etc... Let us know if anyone has interest. |
