Today five of us (Greg, Ted, Robin, Eric & Tim) met at Klode at 6AM, but there was a beach health warning, so we decided to trek down to Bradford instead which had tested clean.
We took it easy today, thank heaven after the last few days we needed a break. We swam from the buoy on the south end of the beach to the buoy on the north end, and back. I googled it later, it's about 0.4 miles each way. Eric and Tim got out there, but the rest of decided to go a bit more and so we did about a mile.
The water was clear for the most part, not crystal clear like on some previous days, actually more like "normal". Note: the natural state of the lake is to be somewhat cloudy with (unharmful) organisms.
It was a beautiful clear morning, it's always nice to swim as the sun is rising. The water was actually warmer than the air this morning, so Cap'n and I were comfortable without wetsuits in the water, but we chilled a bit after we got out.
The warning at Klode has been lifted so we'll swim there tomorrow at 6AM.
Cap'n has to coach the Tri-Wis track practice tonight so he can't go later, but I would be interested in a sunset swim, say around 7Pm or 7:30, if anyone interested. It would be awesome to start and end the day with a swim.
