So winter is upon us here in Sydney. The water at shelly beach between the times of 6am – 8am are stable at about 18 – 19 degrees Celsius. The air temperature is about 15 degrees\u00a0Celsius, so all in all, its cold !<\/p>\n

I can see the normal faces that are usually there in the morning still *mostly* there but a few of the \u00a0regular swimmers are becoming more scarce. Might be that they are just swimming just a tad later when the water is warmer or when the air temperature is warmer. At 6 – 7 am in the morning, its nice once you are in the water but once you get out thats when the cold really hits so it could be they are starting later \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Anyway, I continue to swim at about 6am – 7am in the morning. Can’t start the day without it and the cold doesn’t really stop me to much. After the swim I just relax for about 30 mins, go for a run then get back to start work. They say the water gets to about 11 degrees\u00a0Celsius at the peak of winter. I am not sure if I will be in Australia when this hits but if I am im surely going to try to withstand, that cold \ud83d\ude42 If not, ill just put my wetsuit on and continue with my swim.<\/p>\n

Regardless of the water\u00a0temperature\u00a0the weather has been \u00a0excellent (no rain for the last 3 weekends) and the sun has continued to shine beautifully every morning. If this kind of weather continue its going to be pretty awesome.<\/p>\n

The pictures kind of remind me of an artists\u00a0depiction of a neutron star with its magnetic rays\u00a0emanating\u00a0from its center\u00a0\ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
