Polar Bear Plunge



I participated in the Polar Bear Plunge this weekend. It was quite an experience. I had watched my sister do it one year, so I thought I knew what to expect... Yeah RIGHT! The wait to jump in shorts and a t-shirts in the cold snowy wind seemed to take days, and the jump... was AWFUL! I can't even explain how it felt. My body didn't know what to do. I for real thought I wasn't going to be able to get out of the water. When I hit the latter, the icy wind hit me which felt great! As soon as I got off the latter, I sprinted for the toasty heated van. My toes were numb, and I felt like I was out of my body. It was all over when I finally made it back into the Hines Center and into the steam room.. But hey, "I'm freezin for a reason!"
