Help! Water temp over 90!

Does anyone actually workout in the outdoor pool with these inhuman water temperatures of 90+? Last week it was 86, and I was so uncomfortable, cramping constantly, despite bananas, Vit 3 and tons of water. I've had to go indoors, which is killing me, since I suffer through winter, living for the summer, but this is brutal. I'm on the East coast. This week the air quality is bad, and heat index is in the triple digits as well. Should I tough it out and just accept that the workout will be quite poor? :doh:

    See, that's the problem. Anyone other than lap swimmers will complain. Most pools aren't solely used for lap swimming so there's some give and take involved. 83 is definitely better than 85 or 86, after all! Right, but this facility has a therapy pool for hot water lovers, therapy, water aerobics classes, a hot tub and a LAP POOL, that was supposedly built purely for lap swimmers, and kept at a target temp of 78. Which is why I joined. Which is why I am annoyed at 83, whether it's better than 85 or 86, it's contrary to everything the members were told prior to joining.:bitching:
