Pleasures and Hazards
Pleasures:
- Increased adrenaline rush: Cold water swimming can produce a surge of adrenaline in the body, which can make you feel more energized and alert.
- Improved mood: Cold water swimming has been associated with an increased release of endorphins, which can elevate your mood and reduce stress levels.
- Improved immune function: Cold water swimming has been shown to improve immune function, possibly due to the stress response induced by the cold water.
- Sense of accomplishment: Many people find ice swimming to be a challenging and rewarding experience, providing a sense of accomplishment and pride.
- Social bonding: Ice swimming can be a social activity, with groups of people coming together to share the experience and support each other.
Hazards:
- Hypothermia: Prolonged exposure to cold water can cause hypothermia, which can be life-threatening if left untreated.
- Cold shock response: Entering cold water can cause an involuntary gasp reflex, which can lead to drowning if it occurs while the head is underwater.
- Heart problems: Cold water swimming can put a strain on the heart and increase the risk of heart attack or stroke in people with underlying cardiovascular disease.
- Frostbite: Exposed skin can become frostbitten in cold water, particularly in extremities such as the fingers and toes.
- Injury from slipping or falling: Ice swimming can be hazardous if proper safety precautions are not taken, such as wearing appropriate footwear and using a rope or ladder to enter and exit the water.

Public Law 98-144: Martin Luther King Day
The federal law that established Martin Luther King Jr. Day as a national holiday was Public Law 98-144, signed into law by President Ronald Reagan on November 2, 1983. The legislation designated the third Monday of January each year as a federal holiday in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s contributions to civil rights and social justice. The first official observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day as a federal holiday took place on January 20, 1986. However, it was not immediately observed by all states, and some states adopted it gradually over time, with all 50 states recognizing it by the year 2000.
