Air quality in the bubble at LC Nationals in Savannah
Former Member
First of all I would like to start this thread by saying this is the BEST ORGANIZED swim meet I have ever had the pleasure to compete in. Absolutely EVERYTHING was taken care of by Scott Rabalais and his group. Thanks for an awesome time!!
I do have something to complain about, and it was the air quality inside the bubble. I know many of my teammates at NC Masters are still suffering from the effects of the chlorine. I had a very difficult time breathing on Saturday and Sunday, especially after each of my events. I felt I could not take a deep breath. I have asked many of my teammates about this, and most of them had the same problem.
Did anyone experience something similar??
Henry and my fellow swimmers;
The air quality is a factor anywhere you may swim; some of us from the south may not be able to handle the air in San Diego. I have bad allergies in certain parts of the country and it is better than others.
Even though that we swim and prepare for meets, the environment will affect your swim, bike, run, or any other sport. It is part of the competition to over come these factors. This happens to all calibers of athletes and does not matter where the meet is hosted, the problems with the environment will be an issue. I know that if you have an issue in regards to future meets the championship committee would like to have your information in regards to the good and bad on the hosted event.
Good luck at future meets and be prepared for all aspects of the sport.
