<p>Dan O'Conor said he started jumping into the lake at Montrose Harbour on the city's North Side last year to relieve stress.</p>

<p>"It was during the pandemic, it was during the protest, it was during an election year. ... So it was somewhere where I could come down here and block all that noise out and kind of be totally present with me in the lake, and find some moments of Zen," said the father of three.</p>

<p>He was encouraged by the response he got for his undertaking. "People started asking me what this was benefiting and how they could support and when I say people, I'm talking strangers online, you know.

<p>Saturday was special because it was the culmination of doing it for a full year. "I just wanted to celebrate just that drive to dive for 365," O'Conor said.&nbsp;</p>
