Back in the open water

Did a half-mile or so today to get re-acclimatized to cold (and salt) water.

The water near the beach was 64F-ish. Then I started to swim toward the bridge. Oy! Tide was coming in and it was cold. Pool thermometer read 60F, and was heading down.

Been since November the last time I’ve been in open water, and salt water at that. 30 minutes was long enough. Will try again in a week or so. Who knows, maybe the water will be in the mid-60s by then?!
