sauna and cold plunge

I am a bit of a wuss when it comes to cold water, but I can just about stomach these cold plunges when I come straight from the sauna and straight back in. They had an outdoor sauna where I have been doing classes and I decided to give it a go. We have had such cold weather over the last week it was so nice to finally heat all the way through to the bones. I managed my longest plunge after of around 3 minutes, I actually could have stayed in longer as once I was in for a while I felt completely numb and couldn't really feel anything lol, I only got out as I got a bit worried. It was also the best feelings I;ve ever experienced from it, I had tingles everywhere all down my back, normally its just my legs really. They had three different plunge temperatures ranging from around 1 degree to -0.75. I went with the middle 0.04 one.

After I had a lovely coffee, I've tried every cafe in this area after my classes and this one is my favorite I think, it is called artisan brew, and the coffee was artisan :)
