Description:
After many great runs, this will probably be the last Run and Swim event I will lead because I'm moving away from UBC. The sauna is now open again, just in time. Come celebrate the (almost) end of exams!
———
Someone once told me that the dopamine rush due to cold water swimming is matched in size only by the dopamine rush that one gets from cocaine. Lacking experience in one of these activities, I cannot attest whether this strange rumour is true. What I do know is that swimming in the ocean feels great.
This trip (?) will consist of three parts: run, swim, and sweat. First, let's go for a 25 minute jog around campus to get the blood flowing (in the unlikely event that it was not already). Then we'll swim in the ocean. Finally, we'll chill out in UBC's own sauna or hot tub at the Aquatic Centre.
Meet Thusday at 4:30 pm at the Jenga House located at University Blvd and Main Mall. You don't have to sign up. Just show up! (I'll leave the "sign up as interested" open so you can express interest and receive email updates.) Also, if you want to run but not swim, or swim but not run, that's cool too. (If you're swimming but not running, email or text me for info on where to meet us.)
And please note: particpants are requested to diligently avoid bringing cocaine or any other drugs and should take strict care not to be under their influence.
