i'm not THAT crazy


this morning, as i was taking my bootcamp class through some exercises
on a pier next to the ferry building, a guy in a swim cap and speedo
walked past us toward the end of the pier.



it was a cold and foggy morning, and it seemed pretty clear that he
was going to jump off the end of the pier and into the bay. the
extremely cold bay, wearing no wetsuit.



about 30 seconds later 15 more people in similar outfits passed us,
heading the same direction. when they got to the end of the pier they
stood around for a little bit talking, then one by one, climbed up on
the railing and jumped into the water, and started swimming.



they didn't swim parallel to the shore, they swam AWAY from it, until
we couldn't see them any more.



crazy swimmers.
