HB Tower 9 Swim, Tuesday, August 24th at 6:45 AM

You know the drill: meet at Tower 9 at 6:45 am. We’ll discuss conditions, pair up and then enter the water ~7 am.

Most likely, we will split up into 2 groups. One group will swim about an hour and the other for about 30 minutes. You can choose your group.

As swells are strong, mostly from the south, we’ll swim heading to the south, parallel to the shore.

All levels welcome. Most of us average 1:35-2:20/100m. But, since the current is so strong, your smartwatch will be stupefied by your yardage, or lack thereof.

P.S. Water temp has fluctuated recently. Most recently, a nice 66 F. But, assume it’s about 65 F and you’ll be fine. Air temp, sun, winds, and humidity can also make it feel warmer/colder.

If you’re unaccustomed to the cold, bring a hot beverage in a thermos to Tower 9 (not your car). You’ll want to sip it about 2-4 minutes after exiting the water to offset the after drop.

We hope to see you there!
