Pretty cool story in this morning's Boston Globe about a winter outdoor swimming championship event held recently on a lake in Vermont. They cut out a pair of 25-meter swim lanes from the ice and no wetsuits are allowed, much different from the polar plunges where people run into the water and then turn around and run right out.
