Fri PM Crew: The Patriarch, Diablo, Gumdrop, Crash, Sir James, Mike, Mike, Phil, Capt'n
Days like today are rare...very rare. Not only was the water warm (upper 70's to low 80's in several spots) but it was also crystal clear and calm. An absolutely exceptional, if not the best ever, day for the Klode Crew.
In fact I think I overheard The Patriarch mention that the occasional cool spots of water actually felt good. ...to be honest, I don't think I've ever heard a comment like that being made about the Lake Michigan waters but I'll definitely second that thought about today's swim.
It was one of those days where swimming just felt effortless regardless of which direction you were swimming. Several of the crew members logged a skin swim up to Three Piers while Sir James logged a 5K swim out to the Pier on the Point and back.
Upon arriving back to Klode we hoisted several shots of Pitsch to toast Gwen's exceptional performance at the London Tri and debated who we should be paying tribute to for our exceptional swim conditions The Lady of the Lake, Neptune, Poseidon, Aquarius or the absence of Jack Frost. :)
