When we return to swimming.

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. Dan

  • Reported on radio this afternoon. Radio station? I will see if their website has a report i can follow. This is all I have seen to date, and it (in combination with the state publications, USA Swimming publications, and our own action plan) has not moved our local authorities much. WHile the rest of the world is swimming, with groups on opposite ends of the pool, meaning 2 swimmers per lane, our local authorities will only allow 10 people IN THE BUILDING. And they finally agreed to that late yesterday. www.cdc.gov/.../water.html
