Here's an article entitled "Some Leap, Some Walk; All Get Cold" which describes members of Kitsap Aikido in Poulsbro, WA, who take an annual plunge into the waters of the Point No Point shore in Hansville on New Year's Day. According to Dan Delaney who leads the event, "It's easier to jump in or run into the water. But to walk in slowly and control your breathing and stuff, that takes real mind over matter."
