The nearest Masters to me is 30 miles away, but I have a 55ft lap pool 5 min away with no real swimmers in it.

With no one to pace/train with, since I&amp;#39;m not good with a clock at that short distance, I&amp;#39;ve added pace tones to my mp3 player (a tone for each flip).  It keeps me focused and objective about my workouts.  I posted about it a couple of weeks ago, if that&amp;#39;s something that would interest &amp;amp; help you.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: No Masters group in Fredericksburg, Va area</title><link>https://community.usms.org/thread/174544?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 27 Mar 2012 06:50:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:92ace9db-a242-4c6a-a908-4fbb7fe58941</guid><dc:creator>orca1946</dc:creator><description>Ask the teen  coach if he/she wants to start a team.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
