Since the old thread is like on page 208 now, it's time to create a new thread.  Be sure to turn on the thread notification so you can get all the latest and greatest updates.

What: Open Water Swim followed by a Run followed hopefully by BEER! 
Where: Butcher Jones Cove (Click here for directions and map) http://web.mac.com/j.donahue/ESCKTC/Swim.html
When: 2008 Inaugural outing begins on April 3, 2008 at 5:30
Frequency: Every Thursday night until we say

Be there or be square!  We all meet up for an OWS, then a quick transition into running gear for a run up BJC road and back.  Then, if we have suckered any newbies into bringing beer, or if Fitzy is feeling kind enough to visit the bone yard and bring us some stragglers, we all stand around and drink beer and talk as the bats and bugs dive bomb our heads.  Sounds like fun, right????  Anyone is welcome to join us, so come on down!!!

I will probably try to make it the 10th since I am taking some time off from work so as long as I pick the kids up from school before heading up there (or just take the motorcycle) I should be able to make it.

Can I still post in the old thread to keep it alive, or is it better to post in both threads to up my posting count?

Oh yea - I am there tomorrow for the exam and the swim!

Omiheck, just clicking on the link and looking at the lake picture made me feel like I am going to throw up. Maybe I am going to be a pool-kinda-tri-girl?

I am going to get the temperature report from you guys this week and if it's warm enough I will aim to come on the 10th. *GULP*

I wont be able to make it until the 10th, but have fun. Go ahead and pee in the water, your small contribution to warming up the lake!

I'll be there. I'm thinking of going with something sheer and sexy to kick off the new season right.  I may even shave my back for the occasion.

Chris, you officially have a theme song!

My Milkshake brings all the boys to the yard,
And their like "It's better than yours"
Damn right, It's better than yours,
I can teach you, but I have to charge

Saguaro Lake Temperature Report: 

With wetsuits, it's a little chillly with a few seconds of light hyperventilating when you first get in.  VERY doable and actually enjoyable once you're swimming. 

Without a wetsuit: Nope!  If you have a high cold tolerance and are a strong swimmer, I'd say next week would be doable.  If you're missing one of the above 2 qualities, you should be just fine in 2 weeks.

Thank you for the report! I guess I need to wait a few more weeks! I have something on the 17th at my kids school so I will come out on the 24th for sure.

Thanks!

C & I may be there on the 10th just to socialize and just generally be Cool Kidz. Cora can teach yoga on the beach if anybody's not interested in getting cold.
