I have to admit...I love it when the pool is cold, but then I like swimming laps. |

Bfit, if your ears were aching and you were shivering and your toes were numb it was too cold for you. No matter standards or other people's tolerance. Everyone is different: metabolism, fat insulation, activity, age, etc. Fortunately the situation should be back to normal next week and in the meantime why risk a heart attack?
If you, or anyone else, is interested in something they could wear in such situations I recommend the half-sleeved jacket on this page in the ultra stretch neoprene fabric: http://www.waterwarmups.com/wstyle.htm. I checked out a lot of different shirts and jackets and chose this one. Luv it. You can unzip it part way or remove it if you begin to get overheated. You can wear it under or over your swimsuit (or, as the creator says, just with bottoms).
