I will be joined by 9 heavy hitters for this 2010 NYCSWIM finale.
they are predicting a little weather for saturday in these parts so the course direction has been changed and the start time will now be 4:45 AM (thats right folks.... darkness, wind and waves! what could be a better way to wrap up the season)

Water is finally warming up!
Shhh -- don't tell anybody. I'm afraid you'll jinx it. (I'm signed up for the 12.6, and I'm very superstitious. Got in just south of the Santa Monica pier this morning. Let's just say that both the water temp and the current put a smile on my face.)
