With the season drawing to a close........

OK, My last swim was last week in brisk 48 deg water in Long Island Sound. I'm done. Who is still hanging in there and what's the temp?

    That is an interesting find regarding the wetsuit no-wetsuit sequence. Previously, how were you entering the water to start a skin swim? Just walk in and keep walking until I'm stomach deep and then start swimming, face down. I count strokes, knowing that after, say, 40 strokes, that headache will be gone. I think I've reached a new level of acclimatization - what was nearly unbearable last thurs. was downright balmy last night. Here's to December!
