Current water temperature: 45°.
This has been a bizarre Spring to say the least.

Typical water temperature for April 28th is between 62-65° at Clinton...hence why we picked that date.

We do not see the water warming up to anywhere near that temp in less than 3 weeks.

What is everyones thoughts on holding a Seawolf Trail Race on April 28th (Run Only) and pushing the Seawolf Swim/Run back to June?

Athletes would get 2 races for the price of 1.

Thoughts??
