    I signed up for the Polar Bear Plunge in Venice, CA this year! Turns out it’s also a 400m swim. This challenge was NOT what I expected. Join me for cold exposure, cold therapy plus a surprise open water swim that left me shaking and babbling lul. Happy 2020, Pal-ys! I’m excited for the new year with you!
