At Tuesday evening's swim with the Fine Wench and Sir James a common question arose that was curiously presented during the morning swim with Michael and The Patriarch. "Was the warm water coming or going"? While the water temp Tuesday evening was a bit of a shock to the system at first, the three of us were still able to log a 10 minute swim between north and south beaches without a wetsuit.
Sadly, The Patriarch and I found the answer to that question on Wednesday morning...the warm water was GONE. With the assistance of a wetsuit and a bit of insanity The Patriarch and I were able to log a 30 minute swim this morning. Frozen hands, feet and a numb face resulted from the endeavor...the water clarity and amazing sunrise made the adventure worthwhile.
We plan to take the plunge again Thursday morning at 6:30am....hopefully the current polar like conditions will have passed by then. But if the endeavor requires a bit of determination we'll certainly be up for the challenge!
