The Futility of a Year of Cold Showers.

Mark Serrels, an editorial director, took cold showers for a year after a challenge from his inner voice. While he hoped for health benefits, he found it difficult to maintain the habit and is unsure if it had any long-term benefits. He believes the mental energy required to endure cold showers may have made it more difficult to achieve other goals. However, he never regretted a single cold shower and always felt better immediately afterward. He plans to continue taking cold showers as it has become a habit.
