Sarah Cawood tells cancer to 'do one' as she plunges in ice bath after battle
Sarah Cawood’s new year was off to a fresh start, as she took a dip in an ice bath on Sunday.
The presenter, 50, plunged herself into an outdoor tub of water, filled with ice cubes, as one of her children filmed her and counted down the time she had left in the freezing water.
Wearing only a black swimsuit and keeping her hair down, Sarah worked on controlling her breathing as she sat down in the pool.
Uploading the clip to Instagram, the star captioned the video: “I did three minutes today!! My sister @emma.bryce.35 told me how to breathe and it made it much easier!”
