    The preliminary sprint distance race kicked off early Friday morning in unseasonably cool weather when about 600 competitors � lashed by wind and rain � hit the 11-degree water for a 750-metre swim in English Bay.


    If you are going to engage in a sport which includes swimming I would think that 11C goes with the territory.
