Ok, so the more they email me, the more I get nervous about the water temp. Last year it was 69 which stung to get in, but it made for a nice swimming temp. By the end, though, my fingers and toes felt a little numb, but that could have been tired (??).
But this year, it could be up to 10 degrees colder?! What to do when the coolest water I can find here in Cincinnati is 80?
57....not sure I would make it. it was 60-61 that last time I was out with out a wetsuit and after 30 minutes it felt like something was pounding on my biceps and upper chest. total swim time was 60 minutes, about 45 minutes later i was at home on the sofa and still felt cold!
