In about a week and a half, I will have to stop swimming in the nice warm indoor pool and start swimming in the cold outdoor pool. The indoor pool is over 80 degrees with air 75-80, and the outdoor pool is closer to 65? (not heated) with air 70-75 most days. Is there anything I can do to make the transition easier? Cold showers, maybe? Or will it just be miserable no matter what?
We go through this every year at our pool here. We swim outside year-round, it is heated in the winter. When they first shut off the heater a few weeks ago, it was definitely noticeable. Now they have started using the aerators at nights, and the water is pretty crisp when you first get in. However, in a few weeks when the heat really hits, I'm sure we'll be wishing the water was this cool. In summer, our water can easily hit 85-88, making a workout difficult.
