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?
We are fourtunate to have a 50 M pool in Dover, NH. I believe it is one of the only 50 m outdoor pools in NE, if not THE only 50 M Pool. It was renamed "Jenny Thompson" pool probably about 8-10 years ago since Jenny swam for Seacoast Swimming Associatoin here in Dover as an age -grouper
NE has a couple of 50 meter pools. There is Wellesley College in Conn. and Harvard University. Not to mention, that pool in Vermont where the New England LCM Champs are held. Well, at least, it is heated but I did the heated pool and 53 degree temp outside where my sunday practice is and it was not fun, nor funny. We got out and ran right into the building after practice.
