12 or so in the Phoenix area on Friday

You should come swim with Mesa Aquatics Club Masters. We have noon workouts at Kino Aquatic Center and Skyline Aquatic Center. Kino is pretty close to the 101 and 202. Skyline is much further east. Keith -- Mesa is definitely the place to go both for the workout and the location. Both Phoenix Swim Club and Sun Devil Masters will/should have noon workouts, but they'll be farther from Mesa. The city of Scottsdale pools at Cactus Park (www.scottsdaleaz.gov/.../) and El Dorado (www.scottsdaleaz.gov/.../eldopool) have lap swimming from 6am to 1pm. El Dorado is closest to Mesa and a fine enough pool, but Cactus is a better pool. Not sure if you're able to drop into ASU's Rec Center pool, but it might be worth a call to see if you can if you only have time in the afternoon -- www.swimmersguide.com/.../Detail.cfm. FYI and IMHO, www.swimmersguide.com is a better place to go and gets you to pool information much quicker than the USMS search function.
