I must be getting old, I have only entered my outdoor lap pool once since it opened on Memorial Day weekend. The water was 74, but the air temp was 80. Nights have dipped into the 40's and this morning, I planned to give it a try, however, it was 64 degrees and very windy, cloudy and the water temp was only 70. I should mention that no one was in the pool either. Every summer I run maniacly to the sports stores in hopes of finding a wetsuit that feels NOTHING like a wetsuit and come home empty handed.
So, who's swimming outdoors now, with or without a wetsuit, and what are your water temps?

Lucky east coast people - so many indoor pools. It doesn't exactly get super cold along the CA coast, but I still have to put up with outdoor swimming in 30-40 degree F weather. Luckily pool stays around 78, so I survive.
I'd rather swim outside any day over indoor pools. Just my preference. 78 is perfect temp, although if it's 40 outside, 80 would be even better.:banana:
