Swimming in the least preferred pool of the two I swim in until the kiddos start long course practice, and I'm back to swimming in the town in which their team is based. At any rate, I've griped about this pool, and it was 86 yesterday, 84 today (the Gold's policy I had been told was 82, but now I'm told is 84, and cleared by the health department - oh, squirrel! - that's another gripe/discussion).
Anyway, yesterday, a lady opened the door and commented on how strong the chlorine smell was, and decided to not swim. Okay. I did. Got water in my eyes from leaky goggles, and it was a whole lot worse than usual. 67QUeen actually asked late in the day if I had done something to my eyes. No, just seemed worse in this pool than the other. It was better by this morning. Same thing, today. I look and feel like I have conjunctivitis. No weeping, by my eyes are very, very red, burn, and feel like I have small cuts all over my sclera (noting my right eye got the brunt of it today). Tightened up teh goggles to the point of being uncomfortable during my main set to ensure that I didn't get any more water in them.
Anyone else suffer from this? Is there a level where the chlorine becomes stronger than recommended? The temp tells me that these people will just throw the kitchen sink at the pool, damn the torpedoes. I don't really want to complain, but I got out of the pool over 12 hours ago, and I am STILL suffering from it.
Ha, that's something I need to do for another issue......temperature. I know this has been beaten to death here, but a lap swimming pool open for water zoomba classes 3 hours per week being set at 84 to appease the water zoomba classes allegedly with the blessing of the health department.
But again, I think it was a one off, 2 day long issue that is fine, now.
Yeah I hate warm pools too. Can't do anything about it either as the maximum allowed is by the codes is 104 degrees, and that applies to spas.
