The pool was 85 degrees today. The motor on the exhaust fans is broken and won't be fixed until the pool closes in the summer. We can't open the outside doors on school days for safety reasons. School is still in session, so the gym teachers still have a say and frankly, are listened to more than an extra-curricular swim coach. SHUT UP ABOUT IT! :bitching: Constantly whining about the temperature of the water is not accomplishing anything. There is nothing anyone can do about it. The coach is constantly in contact with the custodians and the superintendent about the issue. SUCK IT UP OR STAY HOME. Look at the positives....1. They let us in at 5:15 AM 2. They do an amazing job of keeping the water crystal clear all the time! 3. We have the luxury of swimming long course, indoors, in April, in Pennsylvania! Phew. I feel better now. Thanks.
In the past six days, counting today, I will have swum in five different pools. All with different temperatures, all outdoor pools. With the exception of one pool, which normally runs pretty warm, all the pools were fairly cool. Two of the pools were just at that temperature where its only cool when you stop swimming. I'll take the cool pools over the warm pool when swimming outdoors during daylight hours. I'll take the warm pool during fall and winter.
