I have been training at Icebergs a lot the past few months. Because the pool is not heated, the water temperature is a few degrees cooler than the ocean. The pool is an ideal 16C and provides a good alternative to swimming in the ocean when the swell and chop are too rough.
I am a first year member of the Winter Swimming Club. I have never been a sprinter, but over the past few months I have noticed that my sprinting has improved. I can now maintain a 6-beat kick (okay, maybe 4-beat) for an entire 50m.
Hopefully the cold water training and sprinting will help me breeze through those last few miles.
Thank you Icebergs!
