The Pier Swim Game







Today there was only a handful of surfers in the water.  The south side had some 4 foot waves now and then that looked nice, but most of the beach was very choppy and closed out in close.  I had a hard time swimming out against an incoming tide that was really cold and very choppy sideways.  I had 2 small gulps of water to make me gag a bit.  I froze for 16 minutes pretty good until I hit the end of the pier.  The swim was 30 minutes; it took a bit less coming in because I had a little push from the tide.  I may have to take a few days off; I have a pinched nerve in my neck where it's fused. 
Good swim today. Getting the year off to a good start.
