For me, it's now going on four weeks since my last swim. We were in Turks and Caicos March 7-14 for spring break where I was doing daily open-water swims along the beach. My last swim was a 3-miler on March 13. When we got back to the U.S., we had to go into mandated 14-day quarantine so I wasn't able to get out to go to the pool before they all closed. Who knows when I'll swim again...either open-water warming up (I live in RI), or pools opening again. I am maintaining fitness with bike rides, and a run here and there. And I know I there is other 'dry land' training I could be doing. But my concern when returning to the water is injuring myself because of doing TMTS. I'm just that kind of athlete. Raise you're hand if you think you're a candidate for a TMTS injury too.

Austin TX now has 3 masters programs back in action that I know about. 2 per lane, opposite ends of the pool, enter/exit through separate doors, no facility access, come suited up and ready to go. Started back last week and my 4th swim today.....it's hell being old and out of shape, but at least I have started the long climb to get back. I had knee replacement surgery in early Jan so I have been out of the water for 4 1/2 months. Glad our city is opening up and doing it right! Every swim people have been great and following all the guidelines set by the pool owners/managers
