The water temperature of our outdoor pool was 75 degrees this morning (air temp of 76). We worked out with the age groupers and it was a real struggle--never did feel right. Couldn't go inside because that would have been a sign of weakness, especially knowing that my daughter was in the pool. Today I actually felt my age. I don't remember it being that difficult. Maybe I just need more body fat. Pass the Twinkies, Geek.

  • Craigh: You must not be a cold water swimmer. I would think if the water was below 70, that you would want to go inside. This weekend I did a swim in Lake Michigan. Actually it was the National Championship 2.5 K and the water was 73 and I didn't hear from anyone after the race that they thought the water was to cold. Granted we were swimming continous and it was close to 80 duirng the race.
