Saturday February 7th was the YMCA Polar Plunge. Yes, I paid the YMCA to jump into the outdoor pool. It was for a good cause and I got a very nice long sleeve shirt.
Some water aerobics friends came too. Those with pants did not plunge
Debbie, Claudia, me, Angie, and Ealane
Yes, I chose a minion cap for the fashion statement. It was a balmy 55 or so outside, but sunny and no wind.
One of the lifeguards, Christine, had on her Frosty hat
Proof I got in the pool I did not jump. I walked in there and then over to the other steps.
Then I went down the water slide twice with an inner tube
Crazy, huh? It was invigorating and fun.
Now back to INDOOR water aerobics
Hi Joanne - good for you ... seeing as I'm inside with a north wind blowing outside ... I'm just glad it was not me. Congratulations ... is all I can say! Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeletejust good conditions and fun friends. Ahh - peer pressure helps. ha!
DeleteThat's still a bit nippy for outdoor swimming. But you did it!
ReplyDeleteIt was pretty quick from start to finish. Hot chocolate helped
Deletethecontemplativecat here. Wow! You have a brave heart and made it farther than can be predicted. I am not a dive in the pool type person. I ease into it.
ReplyDeletethanks. I walked on in. The jump did not appeal to me. It was fun! Sunny day helped. Plenty of other Saturdays lately - I would have said heck no!
