Santa Monica, Los Angeles.
Mid 50ºF’s
405 North at 7 in the morning on a weekday. Either on my way to a 9 to 5, or…
Wetsuit and overnight oats.
I’m going to work. That open water swim work.
In the photo above, Eva, who lives in Santa Monica, loves pastries and endurance sports.
Water temp mid 50ºF’s. Booties optional.
Some activation stretching
Some posing
Some pondering
Aaaaaand in we go.
No photos of us actually swimming.. I was too busy getting an actual work out, but I’m thinking next time I’ll focus more on some action content!
But!
Here are some photos of us post freezing-water-think-about-sharks swim.
One of the main reasons why I love social workouts is the after workout.
Where we mull over where to go eattttt!!
Banana walnut waffle, scones, latte and black coffee from Urth Caffé, Santa Monica.
Talking about life, working out, the past, future, and what’s going on now.
It’s nice.
Normally I’d go for a minimum of 1.2 miles when swimming the open waters.. but the water was TOO cold.
1,115 yards
19:49 moving time
