I've wondered if the change in weather affects people's desire to continue swimming. For me, starting out swimming just this past June, I'd go to the Y in shorts, a t-shirt, and sandals, and then change into my speedo and swim. This morning it was 43 degrees so I wore jeans, a long sleeve shirt, a jacket, shoes, and then I think ahead to winter with a heavy jacket, boots, gloves, etc. I'm committed to continue to swim, but I know, living in Maine, that when it's below freezing and below zero, I hate to go out and I will have to push myself to leave my warm house.

How do others react to changing seasons as far as the motivation to continue swimming is concerned?
