    so the warm up is just over a half mile, that's probably about perfect. like anything it takes time, practice, work & not quitting when tired, sore & full of taco salad or a breakfast bagel sandwich

    for most people it takes years of work to get decent at most things. some folks will not ever be a swimmer & that's fine.

    it's in my genes to swim as mom was a swimmer/lifeguard & dad a swimmer & sometimes a lifeguard when they needed one. for kicks mom & dad would toss us into the water & make us swim a mile... if we failed, we'd have to fight a shark

    sounds awesome. i wish i was living near the ocean. yep 50 degree water is perfect for cold water swimming. i hear/read that number when researching open water swims like swimming the english channel or something
