Pier to pier swim went well

I wore a wetsuit this morning but Anthony didn't. I shiver more when I get out of an 80-degree-pool then he does when getting out of a 61 degree ocean. (Hermosa Beach stats for today: [Link])

We swam side-by-side and each of us thought we were holding the other back so we kept swimming like it was a descending interval. Ultimately, I personally swam pier-pier faster than I ever have; something like 45-50 minutes. (My surf skills got me to the beach first but I was in a wetsuit.)

We will be there next Sunday!

I am swimming from Hermosa Pier to Manhattan Pier this morning

I will be meeting another SCAQ swimmer there named Anthony. I am so sore from doing all those sprints yesterday at the meet too. I feel like the Marque de Sade gave me a Swedish massage with a KGB era truncheon.

To the right left is a picture of Hermosa Beach Pier and to the left right is the Manhattan Beach Pier taken this morning at around 6:30 this morning. I got the images at watchthewater.org which features web cams along with surf/water info including air temps for just about every beach in Los Angeles: [link] Now fill in 2 miles of water in between these pictures and that is my workout for today.
