As an ocean swimmer, I try not to think of sharks, but we all know that this is their territory | Eleanor Limprecht

It used to be easier to say that the chances of a shark attack were slim. Now I feel as though that pretence of safety has been shattered After nearly a year’s break, I started ocean swimming again this May, delighting in the clarity of the water and the quieter beaches of Sydney’s winter. I’d stopped because of an injury but then found that the longer I was out of the water the harder it was to get back in.It only took that first return swim, however, to remember the absolute euphoria of winter
