  * WINTER EDITION: 4:45PM Meeting Time, 5PM IN WATER!
  

  Join Aaron W & the Polar Bear Crew for a perimeter swim at Aquatic Park. We plan to meet at 4:45pm on the WEST bleachers (usual spot, left of the museum as you face the water). If you have not done a perimeter before or you are a beginner and have questions, send Aaron W a note on Slack! (Swim is ~1400 yards with two meetup points and our pace ranges from 1:40 - 2:10 per 100 yards.)

  You may want to have a floating buoy for your belongings if we don't have a bag watcher. (We update Slack when we do have someone to watch our stuff.) If you keep things in your car, make sure they are well hidden. Some of us wear a blinking light on our goggle straps for safety, visibility, and helping us see each other, as it does get a little dark when we are finishing. These can be purchased on Amazon (Adventure Lights Guardian Expedition Light.) Not required, but nice to have!
  

  We will be putting our toes in the water promptly by 5pm. After the swim we will hang out and drink mulled wine and snack on stuff! Feel free to bring snacks or beverages for afterwards as well, or contribute red wine for next week's mulled wine. You are always welcome to just come hang out and not swim, too!
  

  Make sure to have a bright swim cap (or light), CLEAR goggles, body glide, wetsuit, thermal hood, etc... note that the water in winter can get to low 50's, so you may need to invest in thermal gear, a swim parka, swim light, bucket and Thermos for hot water after, etc.

  Any questions, Slack Aaron W! I am happy to answer any of your open water swimming questions. We have some winter themed swim caps for sale if you are interested! Inquire within!

• [Swim][Social] The Great GGTC Polar Plunge: WELCOME TO 2026!

  • When
    Thu, January 01, 2026
  •  
    11:00 AM
  • Location
    Aquatic Park, SF, CA

  Register

  Start the new year by curing your hangover, hanging with your GGTC besties and demonstrating to the world (and any tourists in the bleachers), that you ain't scared of a little cold water!!

  As with tradition, polar plunges are done in your swimsuit, but we promise we won't judge if you wear a wetsuit. But the idea is to plunge rather than getting in a full workout.
  

  Some of us will only run in and out again, some will swim to the pizza box and back and some will do a whole perimeter! So, it wouldn't hurt to bring a pair of goggles and a swim cap in case your FOMO gets the best of you. BUT, please be aware of your own limits – if you haven't been in the bay recently or swam without a wetsuit for a while, please err on the side of caution.

  Bring friends, kids, snacks, drinks, and anything else you'll need to warm up after! 
  

  Where: Aquatic Park Main (Center) Bleachers

  When: We'll meet at 11:00am for an 11:15am pic and then the plunge!

  We expect water temperatures around 54°F. We'll have people on-site to watch your stuff while you're plunging.

  If they are still in stock, Holiday Swim Caps (silicone) will be available for purchase for $15 from Aaron if they are still available.
  

  Questions? Slack Aaron Walz

  * WINTER EDITION: 4:45PM Meeting Time, 5PM IN WATER!
  

  Join Aaron W & the Polar Bear Crew for a perimeter swim at Aquatic Park. We plan to meet at 4:45pm on the WEST bleachers (usual spot, left of the museum as you face the water). If you have not done a perimeter before or you are a beginner and have questions, send Aaron W a note on Slack! (Swim is ~1400 yards with two meetup points and our pace ranges from 1:40 - 2:10 per 100 yards.)

  You may want to have a floating buoy for your belongings if we don't have a bag watcher. (We update Slack when we do have someone to watch our stuff.) If you keep things in your car, make sure they are well hidden. Some of us wear a blinking light on our goggle straps for safety, visibility, and helping us see each other, as it does get a little dark when we are finishing. These can be purchased on Amazon (Adventure Lights Guardian Expedition Light.) Not required, but nice to have!
  

  We will be putting our toes in the water promptly by 5pm. After the swim we will hang out and drink mulled wine and snack on stuff! Feel free to bring snacks or beverages for afterwards as well, or contribute red wine for next week's mulled wine. You are always welcome to just come hang out and not swim, too!
  

  Make sure to have a bright swim cap (or light), CLEAR goggles, body glide, wetsuit, thermal hood, etc... note that the water in winter can get to low 50's, so you may need to invest in thermal gear, a swim parka, swim light, bucket and Thermos for hot water after, etc.

  Any questions, Slack Aaron W! I am happy to answer any of your open water swimming questions. We have some winter themed swim caps for sale if you are interested! Inquire within!

  With so many members racing Escape From Alcatraz this year, we're introducing a short, Escape from Alcatraz training session, led by SDP and masters swim coach, John Dahlz (aka JD).

  JD will be joining us for one in-person coached training session a week. The rest of the program will integrate with the club's weekly workouts (track, AP swim, coached bike workout), with the board and ambassadors leading other group workouts. All workouts will be available in advance on Training Peaks.

  The program will comprise five weeks of Training Peaks workouts, one in-person coached session with JD each weekend, a virtual course preview, and a great group of teammates to train with. All this for just $125.
  

  IMPORTANT POINT - This is not a beginner program!!! This program rolls on from the end of the SDP and WTT programs and is open to those who took part in the programs OR have prior triathlon experience. Unfortunately, we don't have the time to train people who are completely new to the sport.

  Questions reach out to Craig MacLellan on Slack or email him at membership@ggtc.org

  Here's to training together for this iconic race!
