Made three tries - down the ladder, from the beach, from another area on the rocks - and didn't get to the immersion plus stroking phase. Water is probably in mid-40s. It's a lovely warm day, with cold rain and snow predicted for the weekend, so I had to try. A Russian has been swimming all winter, wherever he is not iced out, so I know it's possible. For some. The real season doesn't start until first week in May, 50 deg water.

Well done! I'm heading up to ladder 1 on the north side tomorrow. Hoping to get in Saturday too, but not sure where.
I've tried working on speed too for a couple of seasons. So far I'm getting slower!
