Then drove. over to Bountiful Lake where I met up with Sarah and Joelle for a one lap in the rain.  The air temp was pretty chilly and Sarah was a little nervous.  I assured her that she'd warmup in that water.  That the air temp was cooler.  It was raining and I was worried about nasty water, but it wasn't bad at all!  I took the temp with my watch several times throughout the swim and it ranged between 55.6 - 56.0 degrees.  We swam a full mile around and it was awesome!  I didn't feel cold until I got out and then the shivers came but that was mostly cause of the air temp and the rain.  

What an awesome day of swimming:

Total: 7.36 miles total and my last 10K is complete!
