I know it is incredibly uncomfortable but is it dangerous? I swim at my company pool, they recently increased the temperature to 32 degrees Celsius (90F) from 28 (82F), the air temperature has remainded constant at about 84. I usually swim 4000-5000 meters but with the increased temperature I am having trouble finishing 3K. I feel like I am swimming in pudding, I hope it is the heat and not me just looking for an excuse to cut my workout short.
Also, does anyone have any recommendations for workouts to try at this crazy temperature. I have been doing a lot of kick sets ask quickly as possible in the hope of creating a breeze for my exposed head.. it doesn't really help very much.

Its not dangerious but its too hot for lap swimming. There are hot spring pools ones in Co and there is a lane for swimming there. But normally people shouldn't swim laps in temperatures above 85 and 85 is on the hot side.
