You guys are hardcore! I love it!
Do you get bonus points for doing the whole thing in khakis and a tie?
Ummm,
Where is the cold? I don't see any ice... It's not a polar bear dip without ice and the possibility of hypothermia...
I know, I know, I'm one of those sick Canadians. I'd give you all an A for Effort though. Good stuff!
The ice was there, it just didn't make the pictures. ; it was in the cooler keeping the champagne bottles cold.
Lol Brent, thats the best kin of ice!
Brrrrrrrrr.
Looks like fun. Crazy how fun Crossfit is.
You could do that in Buffalo, NY right now in lake Erie. Water temp is 43 degrees. The warmest EVER for this date. Totally open water. Who says the Buff. gets alot of snow? I aggree with Pierre, no ice - no polar bears :) Gonna run outside tomorrow in 50 degrees. I love rest days!
As Brent said, ice was in the cooler keeping the champagne cold, and the CrossFit Polar Bears were in the 43 degree water having pure fun. There is no question about it, the photo tells it all. What a great CrossFit New Years Day to remember forever.
