Hey all,
I'm going to be in Austin, TX March 9-13 for SXSW (some small shindig I guess :p).
Anyway, I'm trying to find a place to swim while I'm in town. I guess I could give masters ago, but then my schedule's going to be wonky :).
So ultimately, two questions:
1) Are the master's options nearby cool with drop in folk like me? If so, what are practice times?
2) I'm going to be staying near Lake Park. Anyone know of any pools decent enough for lap swim near there?
OH: and I'm posting this in the big thread just in case there are other folks headed to SXSW :).
That's all, and thanks!
Seriously? Wow, you guys must be extra special elite... I've showed up at masters workouts all over the country without requesting prior approval. Keith, this might be a facility issue. I have dropped in many places and always email the coach in advance as a courtesy. At some facilities, though, there are reasons (often unknown to me) why the coaches need to pre-approve guests.
As far as costs, I've done lots of free drop-ins, but $10 is not unheard of and I've paid more (e.g, $15 recently in San Francisco @ USF).
