Walden Pond water temperature

barring pouring rain I plan to get out there this weekend....

heck I did little lake sunappee on friday with team psycho - for all of 7.5 minutes....but I got in! 

I know last sunday it was 61 degrees and I agree that if felt comfortable - I had neoprene cap, hands and booties though....

I will be out there sunday afternoon....

would go tomorrow, but lightening I figure is probably not a good thing 

no but here you go:

I'm interested in hooking up with some group swims out at Walden or finding a training partner who would be interested in a couple swims per week, approx 1 mi in length. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

I'm probably going to start heading out for the regular weekend workouts again soon.  Not this weekend (Moooooooseman!), but probably the weekend after.

all the triathletes wear wetsuits - and every time I have brought the kids there this year there are others, not just me!

I am all up for weekend walden pond swims! I would even consider a monday after work walden swim.... 

was not planning today - I do need SOME recovery from a half marathon!  and tuesday is track night for me....

we could start NEXT week.... 

I've been swimming there twice or three times a week the last couple weeks.  Usually an evening or morning workout on Thursday, a morning on Saturday, then a recovery swim on Monday and/or Friday.

Honestly, it's all I can do to drag myself to the pool on Tuesday for non-wet-suit sets (good for form, I keep telling myself) - even though the pool is outside now that the bubble is down.

Went last night and tried without the wetsuit.  Had numb toes, a numb heel and a few numb fingers (and lots of blue!) by the time I got out.  On a warm day, probably not a problem, but on a cool evening, the wet-suit is a good idea even from a safety standpoint (IMO, but that's me).

I'm game for some Walden swims - also starting next week (going to Ohio this weekend).
