Cooler Water

It is cooling down here in the City coastline.  I ran the beach and swam for about 20 minutes this past Saturday and figured it was a little under 60 degrees.  I guessed about right.  It's not really too cold to swim, but it does help to have a warm cap, and does take a little adjusting.  I also noticed my stroke rate slowed a lot, which I understand is not uncommon in cold water.  The body just decides on its own it can't go too fast.  I figure I can go 40 minutes easy, but we'll see.
